Writing in the Disciplines

 Step 1 Research the writing styles.

Research three or more articles that exhibit different writing styles. Use the following to guide your research:

• Identify articles that represent the three different disciplines: Humanities, Social Sciences, Applied and Natural Science.
• How does the author's writing style shift depending on their subject matter and audience?

Step 2
Respond to the following questions 

Q1    -  Compare and contrast the three disciplines. Are they interested in the same topics? Do they value the same types of evidence?

Q2     -  Are the articles organized in similar ways? Are there any distinctions in the length or complexity of sentences and paragraphs?

Q3     -  Do the articles use images, charts, graphs, and other visual elements?
