14 Directive/Direction verbs Analyse Break down to find main ideas; then show how they are related and why they are important Apply Use what you know and understand about an idea or principle to comment on or solve a problem. Argue Systematically support or reject a position by presenting reasons and evidence; indicate your awareness of other points of view Assess Consider all the facts of the situation, and judge what action should be taken, or consider all the ideas before you, and consider their worth Define Give clear, concise, authoritative meanings. Sometimes meanings extend beyond definitions, so mention limitations of definitions if appropriate
15 Clarify Clearly explain the main points (which could be facts or opinions) Comment on Discuss, criticise or explain meaning of (the topic). Do not describe. Compare Show both the similarities and the differences Contrast Emphasise the differences (between situations, ideas or actions) Criticise Give your judgement or reasoned opinion of something, showing its good and bad points Critique Analyse and give your judgement about the worth of a point of view or an action; often involves using a theoretical framework
16 Describe Recall and organise facts, processes or events in a logical manner. Do not explain or interpret Discuss Investigate & examine, showing that you recognise there are several ways one can approach this topic. You should build an argument supporting the case you wish to make, giving detailed points for and against.
17 Enumerate List, name (and perhaps number) the main ideas, one by one Evaluate Give your judgement, after showing points for and against Explain Focus on HOW and WHY something is; Needs some analysis before you can assign and interpret meanings Examine Look very closely at the details

Maybe use figures and diagrams Interpret Give the meaning according to your own opinions, based on evidence, or according to some theoretical framework Investigate Examine thoroughly, finding out all the facts, especially looking for relationships between them eg causes; results
19 Justify Show why you think this is correct. Give reasons for the opinion Outline Give an organised description of main ideas, with some supportive information but omitting minor details Profile Give an outline of; i.e. do not fill in all the details but cover the topic Prove Show by argument (you must provide evidence) that something is true
20 Relate Show the connections between things and to what extent they affect each other or are alike Review Look critically at all the important parts State Specify the main points in precise terms. Summarise Give a concise account of the main ideas. Omit details and examples Trace Describe the progress or history of a topic

If it means necessary to the community, then the answer is yes. If it means powerful and equal to men, then the answer is no.

165 A politics presuming the ontological indifference of all minority social identities as defining oppressed or dominated groups, a politics in which differences are sublimated in the constitution of a minority identity (the identity politics which is increasingly being questioned within feminism itself) can recover the differences between social identities only on the basis of common and therefore commensurable experiences of marginalization, which experiences in turn yield a political practice that consists largely of affirming the identities specific to those experiences.

168 The Paragraph The basic structural unit of an academic text: All sentences in a paragraph must be related Each paragraph must be focused on 1 idea about 1 of the essay sub topics That 1 idea is then developed within that 1 paragraph
169 A good essay/report is like a chain: Readers need to see how one idea is linked to the others 1st paragraph introduces topic/argument, has thesis statement Next paragraph gives information about one related idea Next paragraph gives information about another related idea Next paragraph gives information about another related idea Next paragraph gives information about another related idea Final paragraph summarises the topic

172 Australia is a society where economic inequality is pervasive and deeply entrenched. Familiar generalisations about Australia s unique egalitarianism do not match with the factual picture (Tanaka 2013, p.45). The social dynamics at work, and the levels of inequality resulting, are much the same as are found in North America, Western Europe, and middle ranking capitalist economies elsewhere (Smith et al. 2016, p. 102). For example, studies of income and wealth distribution show that in the top 20% of Australians held 62.1% of the wealth, while the lowest 20% accounted for only 0.9% of wealth (ABS 2015).
