How to write academic examples

Hi Everyone,
Welcome to our newsletter. Here is our next new lesson creation for academic writing skills - 'Exemplification’. So what is exemplification?
  • Exemplification means to provide readers with examples that illustrate a larger point.
  • Exemplification writing uses specific, vivid examples for the purpose of adding more information to explain, persuade, define or illustrate a general idea.
  • By supplying specific examples, the writer adds additional who, what, when, where, why and how information to elaborate on the main idea of a paragraph or essay.
  • Making these connections with suitable examples is important so that the author’s intended meaning, difficult concepts, or unfamiliar ideas are made known and clearly understood.

Our exemplification lesson

This lesson is designed to support students in their understand and use of exemplification. It includes noticing the language in context, a language review with examples, four guided practice activities, a freer practice paragraph writing task with model answer and teacher’s notes and keys.
