EQUATOR Lightning Workshop 2019: Writing the first draft of a research article
Jen de Beyer
Wednesday, 17 April 2019, 12.30pm to 1.30pm
Hosted by UK EQUATOR Centre
Once you’ve planned your publication, you’re ready to use reporting guidelines to write your first draft. We’ll cover the structure of a journal article, what info goes where, and common pitfalls to avoid in each article section.
Workshop
You've got a solid plan for your research article. Now you need the optimum order to write the article in (hint: not the order the information appears in!) and to split apart the writing and editing processes. You'll learn how to keep your methods and results from creeping into the wrong section, how to balance your introduction and discussion, and how to use a reporting guideline to make the whole process that much esaier.
We have dedicated separate sessions for writing up your statistical analysis, abstract, and title, and how to take the rough draft to a polished manuscript.
Presenter
