The use of emerging technologies to develop tools to enhance students' understanding of academic argument and the writing process and to improve students' study skills through insights into the structure of academic discourse. Preliminary work undertaken with the English Language Unit, is aimed towards developing an archive of essay materials that could be used to support instruction in academic writing skills, particularly, though not exclusively, for non-native speakers of English. The research relates to that of Mohammad Tawalbeh on improving the summarisation of English in non-native speakers. Key publications

    An Introduction to the Essay
    by Robert J. Tiess
    What is an essay? Based on the current consensus of dictionary definitions and my own ongoing literary experiences, I would feel comfortable defining an essay as an analytical, interpretative, or occassionally informal literary composition, usually of a concise length though sometimes longer, which engages in a given topic often for the purpose of advancing an author's thesis or point of view to her or his audience. Essays can be formal, informal, satirical, even poetic. Literature's evolution has enabled the essay to accommodate the demands of the ages and assume the broadest or narrowest of subjects. Despite its past and present success, the essay is still one of the most underestimated, under-celebrated modes of human expression. Plainly put, our appreciation of the essay is not, this author believes, where it could or should be. The essay sprouted from the simple needs of advancing ideas. Like any plant it grew taller and many branches, and the essay is a tree today in the forest of literature, one with strong, deep roots in the history of human expression. Many among us take solace in its shade or nurture it through writing and reading essays. It is of such enduring fiber that the essay will subsist indefinitely. Yet, with such a rich and vibrant forest of plants and creatures, the essay often blends into the backgroundpartly due to its natural adaption to the environment of texts and critics across history, partly due to the sheer number of texts in existence today, and partly due to a lack of capable discernment on our part as students of literature. Our need to understand the essay is only exceeded by the form's own need to defy set definitions.

    American International College
    Printed in Keywords in Composition Studies - Ed. by Paul Heilker and Peter Vandenberg
    To counteract Robert Connorss criticism of the attempt to define composition studies as a scientific field, Victor Vitanza argued that composition studies is a, meta-discipline that informs other disciplines (qtd. in Varnum 46). According to Varnum, scholars do not agree on the connection that exists between composition science and rhetoric. Andrea Lunsford and Elizabeth Flynn agree that composition studies and rhetoric are different fields. Varnum points out that Lunsford implies a territorial struggle with literary studies (46). At the end of the essay on composition studies, Varnum quotes John Schlibs hope that composition studies will become, not a plodding servant of other disciplines but a key force in the diagnosis of the contemporary world (47).

    The Process Essay
    The first essay assigned in a Composition course is often the so-called process essay, the writing project in which we describe how to do something or tell how something happens. The nice thing about the process essay is that it can be truly helpful. When our readers finish this essay, they will know how to do something that they didn't know how to do before or they will understand some process that had mystified them before. There are several cautions to keep in mind in choosing a topic for a process essay. Don't write about something that is too complicated. Don't try to write a brief process essay about something that needs an instruction manual. When you have to drive from Hartford to St. Louis, you start by getting to Waterbury. You don't like being overwhelmed by directions, and you don't want to overwhelm your reader. Also, don't write about something that needs to be accompanied by visual aids. We could read a good essay about how to wallpaper around a window or a bathroom vanity, but it would be much better to watch a videotape of the same process. There are some things that are much better seen than read. Try describing the process of tying your shoes and you'll see what we mean. Be especially careful of the connections between your sentences in a process essay. There is a temptation to connect each sentence with "And then," "then," "and then." That's all right when Aunt Gloria is telling you how to make meatloaf, but it's boring in an essay. Try writing the essay with all the
