Read the text below which discusses how expert writers (published academics) use the pronouns I and We in their academic writing - or not! - make notes on the key points.

While you're reading, think about:

• Can you think of an academic whose writing you enjoy reading? Why is that?
• What have you been taught about using the pronouns I and We in academic writing?
• Do expert writers in your field use I and We? Or do they avoid them? (Look at some research articles and check.)

DEADLINE: We'll discuss the text in Session 3 - please bring your notes with you.
