Scientific Writing -- General Style
use correct grammar and a style appropriate for formal writing, without colloquial anyparticular sentence but rather detract from the general overall clarity
http://www.utm.edu/~rirwin/SciWritingStyle.htm

Extractions: Guide to Scientific Writing Style: Scientific writing is expected to be clear, concise, and straightforward. The following notes on style should be applied to everything you write for this course. Specific instructions for specific kinds of paper are given elsewhere. Instructions for a scientific report (lab report), a common form of scientific paper in which original data are presented, can be seen by clicking here General Style: use correct grammar and a style appropriate for formal writing, without colloquial phrases (slang) or contractions (don't say don't.) use a clear, straightforward style say what you mean plainly without being cute, grandiose, meaninglessly catchy, or unnecessarily dramatic. (e.g. avoid things like "the antelope hopping up and down like jack-in-the-boxes" or "this paper is of earthshaking importance if we are to comprehend the disaster overshadowing the red-cockaded woodpecker" or "the authors set off fearlessly to the wilds of Kenya" or "have you ever wondered about the amazing colors found in birds?") be concise (do not use a whole lot of extra words like these that do not do a great deal to add to the meaning of any particular sentence but rather detract from the general overall clarity of the paper in question).
Dissertation/Thesis Guide
Advice for every stage of the process. List of general advice, suggestions and invaluable tips.
http://www.learnerassociates.net/dissthes/

Extractions: Introduction This guide has been created to assist my graduate students in thinking through the many aspects of crafting, implementing and defending a thesis or dissertation. It is my attempt to share some of the many ideas that have surfaced over the past few years that definitely make the task of finishing a graduate degree so much easier. (This Guide is a companion to the Guide for Writing a Funding Proposal Usually a guide of this nature focuses on the actual implementation of the research. This is not the focus of this guide. Instead of examining such aspects as identifying appropriate sample size, field testing the instrument and selecting appropriate statistical tests, this guide looks at many of the quasi-political aspects of the process. Such topics as how to select a supportive committee, making a compelling presentation of your research outcomes and strategies for actually getting the paper written are discussed. Of course, many of the ideas that are presented can be used successfully by other graduate students studying under the guidance of other advisers and from many different disciplines.

ERIC Digest discussing issues such as general objectives, planning and writing stems, the document also provides an extensive bibliography.
http://www.ed.gov/databases/ERIC_Digests/ed398236.html

Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Assessment and Evaluation Washington DC. Writing Multiple-Choice Test Items. ERIC/AE Digest. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC A notable concern of many teachers is that they frequently have the task of constructing tests but have relatively little training or information to rely on in this task. The objective of this Digest is to set out some conventional wisdom for the construction of multiple-choice tests, which are one of the most common forms of teacher-constructed tests. The comments which follow are applicable mainly to multiple-choice tests covering fairly broad topic areas. Before proceeding, it will be useful to establish our terms for discussing multiple-choice items. The "stem" is the introductory question or incomplete statement at the beginning of each item and this is followed by the options. The "options" consist of the answerthe correct optionand "distractors"the incorrect but (we hope) tempting options. GENERAL OBJECTIVES As a rule, one is concerned with writing stems that are clear and parsimonious, answers that are unequivocal and chosen by the students who do best on the test, and distractors that are plausible competitors of the answer as evidenced by the frequency with which they are chosen. Lastly, and probably most important, we should adopt the attitude that items need to be developed over time in the light of evidence that can be obtained from the statistical output typically provided by a measurement services office (where tests are machine-scored) and from "expert" editorial review.

James Pryor: Guidelines On Writing A Philosophy Paper
Guidelines on how to write a college philosophy paper, by James Pryor.
http://www.princeton.edu/~jimpryor/general/writing.html

Extractions: James Pryor Philosophical writing is different from the writing you'll be asked to do in other courses. Most of the strategies described below will also serve you well when writing for other courses, but don't automatically assume that they all will. Nor should you assume that every writing guideline you've been given by other teachers is important when you're writing a philosophy paper. Some of those guidelines are routinely violated in good philosophical prose (e.g., see the guidelines on grammar , below). A philosophy paper consists of the reasoned defense of some claim Your paper must offer an argument. It can't consist in the mere report of your opinions, nor in a mere report of the opinions of the philosophers we discuss. You have to defend the claims you make. You have to offer reasons to believe them. So you can't just say: My view is that P.
