The purpose of writing in academic form is to write a paper in a way that people are less likely to challenge the ideas. The intended audience for academic form is typically professors and sometimes other students.
I have used academic writing in other English classes before for essays that the teacher assigned. The Work/Life Imbalance Sample Paper is similar to past essays I have written because I had to do research on a certain topic and cite my references for my essay.
Some strengths to writing a 5-paragraph essay are your ideas are clear and it helps build your writing skills. A limitation to writing a 5-paragraph essay is that it encourages students to write on a surface level.
This genre is very different from other forms of writing in my everyday life. In my everyday life I write to my family or to my children’s teachers. Yes, I write formal when I write to the children’s teachers, but I do not write in essay form.
“It is hard to imagine that working parents are productive or focused when they are forced to leave a sick, young child at home alone or in someone else’s care.” (Samantha Student, 2021)
I agree with this statement because being a parent myself, I cannot stay focused when I am worried about my children.
