Through the course we will address challenging aspects of scholarly writing relevant for the early stage of the PhD. The course will provide opportunities to learn about and develop skills at every stage of academic writing, from first ideas to getting published.
The structure of the course is based on four study blocks which will progressively support the writing process. Each block includes lectures, seminars, group-based and individual workshops, presentations, and critical feedback, follow up writing and preparation.
BLOCK ONE
- Developing a writing strategy, exploring what it means to become an academic writer.
- Interpretation of questions to be addressed, recognising the intended scientific contribution. Principles of critical thinking and self-critical writing will be introduced.
- Analysing texts when reviewing literature, introducing principles of critical reading.
BLOCK TWO
- Planning the article: organisation of ideas, arguments, supporting claims and evidence into a narrative. Testing the line of argument.
BLOCK THREE
- Writing with style, developing the structure and the style of writing.
- Editing text, introducing different practices of revising text.
BLOCK FOUR
- Preparing papers for submission. Focus on the peer review system, reviewing academic texts for academic journals, handling editorial decisions and making revisions and resubmissions.
