a. Academic Writing

• While many style manuals use the terms abstract and summary interchangeably, some see a subtle difference. • An abstract is sometimes considered to reflect upon what the essay is about. • A summary is to describe what the essay contains.

• The abstract/ summary is not part of the paper itself and should be written last. • An abstract/ summary should be no longer than five to ten per cent of the paper. (Cope, B. 2006. The Written Assignment, A guide to the writing and presentation of assignments. Queensland: Queensland University of Technology)
