Introduction
It is important that you are able to express yourself using appropriate and correct language. This is particularly true for the formal written English style required for academic writing. Poor grammar, spelling and punctuation in assignments can result in lost marks.
The tutorials below are provided by BBC Teach Skillswise English for Adults. When you have completed the BBC tutorials, click on the Assessment button to complete a Moodle quiz to test your knowledge of the topics you have just covered. Clicking this button will require you to login to Moodle with your University username and password and then select 'Enrol me' to take the quiz. When you have successfully passed the quiz, you will be awarded a digital badge within Moodle as evidence that you have completed the tutorial.
