Bullet points or numbering
If you are writing a recommendation report, proposal, or
any document with a practical application, using bullet points or numbering can be very
effective style. Note: This is less common in academic papers,
particularly where an assessor is looking for evidence of your ability to write connected
discourse. Consult your teacher before using this format in an academic paper.
EXAMPLE
| It is not just the number of students and the funding
that complicate the equation, there is now a requirement to provide a quality education to
a wider readers. In recent years the Business School has seen the following trends:- (1) Students from a wider variety of backgrounds, including more mature and foreign students, and a varying degree of ability amongst these students. (2) Students having varying methods of learning and different expectations. (3)A more complex choice of paths through the system, with a wider range of named degrees, higher levels of combined studies students and the proposed major/minor/joint degrees coming on stream. (4) The prospect of lifelong learning being made available to all, with initial courses being seen as a gateway to more and more training, with businesses also requiring the updating and upgrading of the skills of their workforce. (5) The development of franchise schemes in the UK and abroad and the development of distance learning materials. (6) The need to generate income from sources other than student fees, such as research and consultancy work undertaken by staff. |
