Hello All,<br>
<br>
Thanks to those who have already expressed interest in participating
in a writing group workshop this month! Based on poll responses, we
will meet: <br>
<b><br>
Wednesday, 18 March 2015, 15.00-16.30</b><b><br>
</b><b>D4 3rd floor lounge </b><br>
<br>
How it works: <br>
The basic idea is that you will submit a draft for review and
receive a draft for review. When we meet, each person will be
responsible for providing a short summary (10 - 15 minutes) of
constructive feedback and comments--like a discussant at a
conference session. You can also provide written feedback (notes on
hard copy or electronic mark up) if you think that is helpful. <br>
<br>
If you want to participate:<br>
Send your draft by email to Ann ( <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:ahartell@gmail.com">ahartell@gmail.com</a> ) <b>by high
noon on 11 March</b>. In your email, include a short note that
says: <br>
1. what the document is (first draft of research proposal, final
draft of a conference paper, whatever) <br>
2. any particular areas where you would most would like feedback
(logical structure, general readability, quality of the lit review,
whatever). <br>
<br>
All participants will get access to the full set of drafts submitted
and a note on which of them they are responsible for reviewing in
detail (along with author requests for particular areas for
feedback), but please take a quick look at all the drafts so you can
contribute as you can to the discussion of other drafts. This way,
we can maximize the feedback AND our opportunity to practice our
peer reviewing skills. Plus get the chance to learn more about our
colleagues' work. <br>
<br>
There is no grade, these are <b>drafts. </b>They can be 'drafty'.
For example, if you have a section that is just bullet points,
that's OK. If your tables and figures are messy, that's OK too. The
idea is to work with what we have to make the next draft better. <br>
<br>
Happy writing, everyone! <br>
<br>
Ann <br>
