Assess graduate students’ understanding of cohesion and coherence strategies in academic prose by asking them to identify, analyze, and revise instances of lexical and grammatical cohesion (reference, substitution, conjunction, ellipsis), cohesion devices (transitions, referents), thematic progression, paragraph structure, and macro-level coherence (logical organization, argument flow, signposting) in short excerpts; include tasks that require diagnosing cohesion/coherence problems and proposing concrete revisions to improve clarity and rhetorical effectiveness.
