The document provides an introduction to the Academic Word List (AWL). It explains that the AWL is a list of 570 word families commonly found in academic texts. To be included in the list, words had to occur frequently across different subject areas and academic texts. The AWL covers approximately 10% of the vocabulary in academic writing. Knowing the words in the AWL can help students improve their reading comprehension and writing abilities. Various strategies for learning the AWL words are suggested, such as using word cards, keeping a vocabulary notebook, and focusing on collocations and grammatical patterns.
