What are some tips for writing paragraphs and entire chapters and producing conclusions? What are ways of providing references, using helpful (or at least correct) punctuation, avoiding common mistakes in spelling, and improving their level of writing? When difficulties arisefor instance, with their supervisorhow might they cope with and resolve such difficulties? This book is a guide.
