SUMMARY:ONLINE: Write like an Academic series (6 weeks)
DESCRIPTION:What is the Write like an Academic series? \nThis six-week program provides support in academic written communication for graduate-level students with English as an Additional Language (EAL). This program provides students an opportunity to improve their writing in typical graduate-student academic and professional scenarios. The scenarios include: \n\nWriting emails to professors and/or advisors\nProviding written feedback to students as TAs\nAvoiding plagiarism\nWriting abstracts for academic audiences\nWriting cover letters to potential employers\nOrganizing and writing a slide deck\n\nThis program is divided into six workshops that run over six weeks. Each workshop is two hours in length. This program is offered only in the Fall semester and accommodates 20 – 25 students. \nIs Write like an Academic for you? \n\nAre you a graduate student\, postdoctoral fellow\, or visiting scholar who speaks English as an Additional Language?\nWould you like to develop your confidence and skills in academic writing?\nWould you like a safe place to practice and develop writing strategies for a variety of academic contexts?\n\nIf you answered yes to these questions\, then this program is for you! \nWhen will the next Write like an Academic be offered? \nThursdays from 1:30pm – 3:30pm\, from September 30 – November 11\, 2021. (No class on Thursday\, October 21.) \nWhat can you expect as a participant? \n\nParticipants will engage in discussions around the challenges and strategies for successfully writing emails to advisors and professors; feedback to students (as TAs); paraphrases; abstracts; cover letters; and slide decks.\nParticipants will engage in practice activities that will allow them to learn and practice written communication skills and strategies as they apply to these academic and professional scenarios.\nStudents will brainstorm and develop language and vocabulary that can be used in these writing tasks.\n\nWho can attend?  \nThis program accepts registrations from any UofG graduate students\, postdoctoral fellows\, or visiting scholars with English as an Additional Language (EAL).
