Academic writing
Target group: doctoral and postdoctoral researchers
For researchers already actively working on an English academic text (such as a thesis chapter, article or conference paper), this workshop will hone participants’ skills presenting their research in a compelling and engaging way. Participants must prepare and pre-submit a mini 3-4 page version of the text as we will not only be focusing on self-editing techniques but also on giving, responding to and incorporating feedback effectively in a range of contexts.

Pre-submission of text: 10 January 2025
Session 1: 21 January 2025 10:00-16:00 (Zoom)
Session 2: Individual consultations by appointment, 27-31 January 2025 (Zoom)
Objectives:
-

-
Apply self-editing techniques and peer-review techniques to pre-prepared texts

Implement strategies for effectively giving and receiving feedback on your work
