Description: The essay is a well-established format of communicating knowledge and understanding about a topic in a logical, credible, and persuasive way, within a given timeframe and word limit. That said, there is often very little time in university courses allocated to teaching effective essay-writing skills. While there is no single best way to write a high-quality essay, there are a number of rules that need to be followed. The secret to getting great marks for your essay is to learn the rules of the essay-writing game and adopt a systematic approach - there is no magical way to 'beat the system' by avoiding the necessary hard work. That said, this chapter provides some handy tips on how to plan, research, write, and reference a sociology essay, all of which should save you time and improve your performance.
