Coursework writing is one of the most common requirements for middle school and university students. These may take the form of essays such as Religion essays, Management essays, Psychology essays, Military essays; research papers, term papers, law briefs, case analyses, and many others depending on the field of study and the approach of a particular instructor. Not all students are proficient at coursework writing because they may either not have enough knowledge and skills to write well or they are not too familiar with the conventions of coursework writing for a course.
Coursework writing initially starts with understanding the question in order to determine what the instructor specifically asks from the student. Next step is the selection of an appropriate topic, if the professor has not already pre-assigned one. After that, the student will now conduct preliminary research on the topic. Materials can include books, journals (preferably peer-reviewed because it is more reliable), professional organisations related to the topic, web sites, and official papers or documents. If the student prefers to search in a library, he or she can make use of catalogs, indexes and directories to search for the right material.
Another important form of resource are people who are experts or who have specialised knowledge on one particular aspect of the subject. When unsure of what direction to take your coursework writing or what format to follow, the student can ask instructors for clarification and advice. However, don't expect that the instructor or professor will spoonfeed you into every step of the coursework writing process as this defeats the purpose of being designed as an exercise intended to test and develop your skills in writing, researching and logical thinking. When doing your research in the library, ask help from librarians in navigating the entire wealth of resources and using it to its maximum potential.
