[Outline]
In this workshop, we will discuss three main patterns of cohesion in academic writing, with a focus on how sentences are glued to each other without conjunctions. To visualise these patterns, we will introduce and demonstrate a user-friendly approach known as Reading-to-learn Activity. It is a practical approach to develop English writing literacies through the visualisation of linguistic patterns in reading. This bottom-up learning approach has the potential of bridging the training of academic writing and reading at sentence and paragraph levels. It provides a complementary perspective to top-down views of academic literacies, such as how many sections do we need in a paper. The applicability of the Reading-to-learn approach is to facilitate both students' self-learning of academic writing and educators' teaching of academic writing.
