Academic Writing as a Part of Research and Science
Academic writing documents and communicates research process and research outcomes
in the domains of science and social sciences.
Academic writing, as a research tool, describes how the research process was carried out
and how the knowledge was generated and being implemented.
Objectivity: The aspect of objectivity may get reflected in the language of an empirical
research paper, where a researcher may distinguish between what is real, and what is the
researcher’s own view or opinion.
Verifiability: The public verifiability feature of science is reflected in the practice where
academic research papers typically outline the description of the various aspects of the
research process adopted.
