Description

A winner of the Knight Award for Writing Exercises and Handouts, this work originates from Government 100, Power and Politics: Power, Tragedy, and Honor-Three Faces of War. "Styles of Writing and the Afghanistan Model" is an in-class writing exercise designed with four goals in mind. Students should learn how to 1) distinguish between different sources in political science: academic journals, policy journals, newspapers, and news magazines; 2) identify the type of content each source tends to provide; 3) recognize the style of writing in each source and its intended audience; and 4) adopt an appropriate style of writing for their own work. Essay assignments throughout the semester require students to write in different styles for different purposes and audiences. 5 page pdf
