TOP REVIEWS FROM INTRODUCTION TO ACADEMIC WRITING
Wounderful course , useful for researchers in all fields
The course was good. However, the certificate says it is a "non-credit" course. For faculty, this is a big demotivation and let down.
The course brings enough perspectives on academic writing, and a must to go if you want to improve your academic writing.
