The final module looks beyond the sentence
to the ways that grammar structures, paragraphs, and longer texts. At this point,
the grammar of the clauses becomes two for organizing written academic discourse. Because the textual function of Prema
allows writers to organize words, clauses and information in ways
that are coherent and cohesive. Academic discourse is more than grammar. It refers to the ways of thinking and
using language in the academia. Academic discourse has functions
like exposition, clarification, and conclusion requiring us to
do things with language. Like explain, define, compare,
contrast, classify, agree, disagree, illustrate, elaborate,
make claims, see implications, infer, exemplify,
anticipate, and conclude. Discourse is not just a language itself. It is language use that represent
a person's experience in the world. Thus, what one has said and written is
significant to the academic community. Academic discourse does not only function
as a tool to convey one's thoughts, but also influences one's formation of social
identity, values and world knowledge. What exactly do we mean
by academic discourse? There are at least as many academic
discourses, as there are disciplines. Can we identify any essential features
that run across the discipline? How did they come to look the way they do,
and could they look any different? Disciplines differ in modes of inquiry,
in forms of proof, and in methods of research. Obviously, these differences manifest
themselves in writing, however, some principles appear in all academic
writing guides, no matter the discipline. Some shared features,
such as source citation are of course, realized differently across disciplines. But there is remarkable consensus
as regards such general principles as message organization and
text structure, voice and register. Density of words and sentences, and ideas. Clarity and coherence. Purpose, functions and audience. This module looks beyond the sentence
to the ways that grammar structures, paragraph and longer text. At this point, the grammar of the clause
becomes a tool for organizing writing, because the texture function of grammar
allows writers to organize words, clauses and
information in ways that are coherent. They fit the reader's expectations for
this kind of text and cohesive clauses, and ideas stick
together in logical, and acceptable ways.
