Therefore, in order to support you in this endeavour, we have created this Interuniversity Style Guide for Writing Final Degree Projects in English. Catalan universities are multilingual environments by nature, which gives you a great opportunity to gain proficiency in a second or even a third language, in the case of English, and its use in formal academic contexts. Our team of linguists has the knowledge and resources to support you as you finish your degree programme and step into the working world as a multilingual professional. The Guide offers advice on writing TFGs and TFMs in three ambits – the Humanities, the Natural Sciences and the Social Sciences – focusing on the differences in structure and style in each. Following discussions of the most important aspects of writing a TFG or TFM, we have chosen to focus on topics such as style, structure, references, bibliography, and tips on editing. We have also provided real examples of the recommended way to structure each particular section, and we have suggested how to use a simpler writing style and adapt the tone to the subject matter. Our intention for this Guide is not that you read it from cover to cover, but rather that you use it to answer specific questions about writing a project in your field of study. The fact that it is online means that you can quickly search for the area that interests you and access our advice freely and easily from any device and location. We have also provided a bibliography and list of resources to help you deal with doubts you may have during the writing process. This Guide is the result of our universities’ joint efforts to address the above objectives and we hope it will help you boost your skills in writing academic documents in English and contribute to your multilingual profile as you move into the professional world upon graduation. We wish you the best of luck throughout this final stage of your university degree Fri, 01 Oct 2021 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10256/23164 2021-10-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10256/23163 Interuniversity Style Guide for Writing Course Guides in English = Manual d'estil interuniversitari per a la redacció de guies docents en anglès Bain, Mhairi; Drinkwater, Jennifer; Bates, John; Bell, Thomas; Noone, Barnaby; Owen, David; Redmond, Peter; Samson, Richard; Vázquez, Luci A course guide describes a subject taught on a degree programme. Depending on the university, or even the faculty or programme, it may provide a general overview of the subject or take an in-depth look at the ground to be covered by the students. It generally includes information such as the course code, prerequisites, learning objectives, learning outcomes, methodology, types of classes, the assessment system and practical information such as office hours for lecturers, reading lists and the study load/ECTS credits. It also focuses on the competences to be acquired by students, which are crucial to help guide them and direct their learning and study, and it covers every aspect of the learning students must acquire and the assessment activities they must complete in order to pass the subject.The present style guide is designed principally for lecturers tasked with preparing these guides in English. However, it may also be useful for course coordinators, language services, freelance translators and mobility students. It provides definitions of competences, learning objectives and learning outcomes, as well as practical advice on how to write and present them. It also provides guidance on how to write and present course content and examines certain aspects of language use Wed, 01 Dec 2021 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10256/23163 2021-12-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10256/16723 UdG Llengua.

Guia concebuda amb l’objectiu primordial d’ajudar a prendre consciència de la importància d’emprar amb propietat el llenguatge, bo i prenent cura de respectar la perspectiva de gènere. Aquesta Guia de la UdG per a un ús igualitari del llenguatge vol servir d’eina de consulta per als membres de tota la comunitat universitària per tal d’assegurar que els textos i usos lingüístics que produïm siguin respectuosos, inclusius i estiguin lliures d’estereotips i d’expressions discriminatòries. Entre aquests usos discriminatoris, destaquem els usos clarament sexistes i androcèntrics de la llengua, entenent per ús sexista aquell que menysté o desvalora un dels dos sexes, i per ús androcèntric, el que invisibilitza o fa difícil imaginar en un àmbit determinat la presència o l’actuació de les dones Aquesta guia és un extracte de la publicació 'UdG Llengua.
