Student Report Writing Must be Improved
Year: 1959
Type: article
Abstract: Upon graduation, most of our college students are inadequately prepared to communicate their geologic findings either by writing or by speaking. Important facets of the problem are: (1) inadequate basic preparation in grammar and composition and (2) insufficient instruction in methods of writing scientific reports. The first is a problem for the secondary schools rather than the colleges, and should be pushed back into their laps. The second is very much the problem of the college Department of Geology.
