Writing in English at University

Writing in English at University is Lund University's course on academic writing for people studying in English, especially second-language writers. Four modules cover the conventions of academic writing and the idea of process writing; how to structure a text and carry an argument through it; how to use and cite sources; and the writer's toolbox of editing and proofreading. The page estimates the modules at six, six, four and eight hours and schedules the course at three weeks of ten hours a week on a flexible timetable, at beginner level with no prior experience required.

Teaching is by video lectures and readings, with quizzes and reflective self-assessment questions, and the page says learners get access to a free electronic textbook written to accompany the course. The course carries Coursera's free flag, so the whole thing can be completed without payment; a shareable certificate is a paid option whose price is not stated, and financial aid is listed.
