Answer:
Types of academic writing
The four main types of academic writing are descriptive, analytical, persuasive and critical. Each of these types of writing has specific language features and purposes.
In many academic texts you will need to use more than one type. For example, in an empirical thesis:
you will use critical writing in the literature review to show where there is a gap or opportunity in the existing research
the methods section will be mostly descriptive to summarise the methods used to collect and analyse information
