Writing a Research Article: Strategy and Steps

Tuesday, 29 September 2009 09:00 - 16:30, The University of Adelaide

This full-day workshop will help participants develop their conference presentation into a written article for submission to the journal of their choice. It is designed for early career researchers, including research degree students. The workshop presents key techniques and tips from the recent book 'Writing Scientific Research Articles: Strategy and Steps', by Margaret Cargill and Patrick O'Connor (Wiley-Blackwell, 2009, www.writeresearch.com.au ), of which the presenter is a co-author. Participants bring to the workshop an example research article published in their target journal, and learn strategies for analysing both the structure and the language of articles in order to develop skills for writing their own manuscripts. A key focus is how to write articles that are likely to meet the evaluation criteria used by journal editors and referees.
