If you are taking a collegelevel philosophy course, and you have to write a paper or an essay, then this video is designed for you. In it, I explain how academic philosophical writing is different from the other kinds of writing that you may have had to do in the past. And I offer several specific tips for how to write better undergraduate philosophy papers. I also give some anecdotes or examples to illustrate the various points that I make. The main point is that the goal of philosophical writing is clarity. You want your paper to be as clear as possible. This is a tutorial on writing a college or university academic philosophy paper.
