Fundamentals of Academic Writing

Assignment Task

Electric bicycles, also known as e-bikes or e-cycling, generally refer to bicycles which are fitted with a battery or electric motor. E-bikes are different to e-scooters, but are similarly gaining recognition for perceived socio-economic benefits which they could offer to individuals and the community at large. However, there are also disadvantages or barriers to widespread use of e-bikes.

1. Search the library for appropriate journal articles on the topic provided. Read the abstract of each article to see which side of the argument it supports, and whether it is appropriate for your purposes. (You may also need to read some of the article to gain a better idea of the argument). After doing the above, decide which side of the argument you prefer; you can argue either for or against the topic.

2. After looking at a number of articles, choose two appropriate academic journal articles about the essay topic – both articles must argue either for the topic or against the topic. Do not use newspaper articles or blogs, or any other non-academic type of article. Do not use books or dissertations, as it is not possible for you to read the entire book/dissertation in order to answer the assessment questions. You must search the Curtin Library to find academic journal articles.

3. Complete all questions on the Assessment 2 Template - these questions are based on the above two articles you find. Read the instructions for each task carefully. Adhere to all given word counts.
