 Summarising is an important skill in academic writing. It enables you to extract the most important points from a text and rewrite them in your own words, in a shortened form. Such skills are invaluable when you are note taking and researching for an essay.

  1. Kia ora Tawhiri, this task needed to be in your own words. What steps do you need to take to summarise something you have read? For example, first you would need to read the text. Then you would decide on the main ideas. Then you could write a summary of what it was mostly about.
