Abstract

Academic writing requires intertextual skills such as appropriately referencing earlier research and avoiding plagiarism. Transferability of skills is important across two domain boundaries: from the student's prior experience to university, and from university to the workplace. This paper presents the results of an investigation into intertextuality in three domains: the leisure reading of new university students; academic writing; and key workplace genres.
