Abstract

Abstract Students and teachers from different language backgrounds are at risk of becoming victims of conflicting trends and conventions when writing in English. This study compares conventions of English academic writing at several European universities with what is taught in English-speaking countries. Data were collected with questionnaires and by surveying university guidelines published online. The analysis shows that the basic concepts are similar, but there are differences in the attitude to accessible and inclusive language. This, however, does not seem to reflect on students’ appreciation of their own needs, since they seem pleased with their courses and their own abilities.
学术写作:极光联盟与英语国家学术写作课程之比较
来自不同语言背景的学生和教师在用英语写作时,有可能成为相互冲突的趋势和习俗的受害者。这项研究比较了欧洲几所大学的英语学术写作惯例和英语国家的教学惯例。数据是通过问卷调查和网上公布的大学指导方针收集的。分析表明,二者的基本概念是相似的,但对语言的可及性和包容性的态度存在差异。然而,这似乎并没有反映出学生们对自己需求的欣赏,因为他们似乎对自己的课程和自己的能力很满意。
