Scholarly Writing<\/p>\n
Each and every game has its own rules and regulations, the rules that govern football cannot be used in rugby. Scholarly writing has some unique set of laws and conventions that are very dissimilar from the ones of other writings such as creative and technical writing. Deviating from any of the rules makes an academic writing inferior or irrelevant. The paper will look in to some of the rules and regulations that should be followed in writing a scholarly writing. <\/p>\n
Scholarly writings have a basic structure, which comprise of the introduction, thesis statement, background information, points to be discussed, general statements and finally the conclusion. However there are some very vital things to consider even if one has adhered to the basic structure of the scholarly writings. Use of contractions, passive voice, and incomplete sentences is not allowed. It is also significant to bear in mind that, use of slang is not entertained and so is plagiarism (Walden University).<\/p>\n
In the article Introduction to Scholarly Writing: Purpose, Audience, and Evidence. The authors attempt in writing a scholarly article has not followed some of the basic rules that make any academic writing credible. Any academic article should not be biased, but should present the argument from both the supporting and opposing sides. Academic articles are like a referee in any game, he should be neutral, so should Scholarly articles. This will ensure that the article can be used by people who are either supporting the subject or opposing it (Walden University).<\/p>\n
Opinions in academic writings need to be backed by some evidence or reference; in the article the writer has not given any evidence that support his opinions to support that most people own computers. The appropriateness of the article can not be ascertained, this is because the writer does not mention which people he is specifically communicating to, whether it a country, A State, college students, or even parents (Walden University).<\/p>\n
Question 2<\/p>\n
It is vital for any researcher to appreciate the significance of peer-review articles more so to the scholar-practitioner. Scholarly articles are very different from other types of articles; this is because they are supported by three crucial fundamentals. The first is they are related to academic study, secondly they bring out the personality of a scholar, and lastly they have the comportment and manifestation of a scholar.<\/p>\n
Scholarly journals are essential to the scholar-practitioner because they contain citations which offer the reader some basic information about the article; some of the incitation includes the title, name of the author, and date. Apart from the citations, the abstracts are vey useful to a practitioner as they give a summary of the contents of the article. The other advantages or importance of peer-review articles is that some have full texts that can be accessed online (Engle, 2009). <\/p>\n
\u00a0Scholarly articles are very different from other types of articles, they can be told apart from other types of articles by looking at some specific features. Most scholarly articles contain an abstract, descriptive review which comes before the main text. Scholarly articles have a more serious look, may contain a variety of graphs and even charts. Scholarly articles always cite their sources in forms of either footnote, or references. Articles that are not peer-reviewed do not have abstracts, do not contain incitation, they do not have descriptive review before the main text. Most of them may contain a lot of pictures. And they do not have the serious look like the scholarly articles (Tibbetts, 2010).<\/p>\n
