Thanks, that’s a good idea to get them to focus on published work in terms of its form, structure, language, etc. They’re regularly exposed to published work but are usually mining it for content and I guess don’t always notice formal aspects

It’s so frustrating when students who are strong in class turn in poor essays.

Anyone have good tips for teaching essay writing to undergrad students? I run regular sessions on essay writing but I’m either not explaining it properly or it’s not going in, as I keep seeing the same mistakes I’ve warned against.
