An Introduction to Cohesion in Academic Writing

[@ACuriousJo]

I am a phd candidate studying self help strategies for adolescents and young adults with high functioning autism. Writing up my dissertation is such a big challenge. As English is my second language, I find it essential to improve my academic writing skills. Thanks John. Your video on cohesion in academic writing not only addresses my learning needs at this stage but also strengthens my determination to overcome the hurdles of writing a phd dissertation.

"I am smart, outgoing, lazy and a drunkard." Is this cohesive? (Adj, adj, adj and noun)

[@Shifan76]

4:32 The linkers are at the start of the sentences - Isn't this mechanical cohesion? This video is very useful. Thanks.

Hello John. About scientific articles. I think applying some of the examples that you gave on this lecture would come up as "forced" or inappropriate when writing a scientific article.
Which recommendations could you provide to prevent that and still have a cohesive writing in that context?

Thank you for clear video makes me understand the cohesion words.

Is it accurate to cite this video based on Halliday's cohesion book?

[@genesisbustamante-durian]

3:20 "Finally we have words and phrases used to summarize..."
However, it is not the final item (the final one is "to Express an Alternative")! Bad cohesion due to bad use of lexical signpost!

[@delfiblanch69]

1)Pronouns
2)Lexical singposts (lists, examples, generalize, consequence, sumerize, alternative)

Burroughs didn't use an outline.
