[Aims and Scope]
In this roundtable seminar we intend to identity and improve skills in academic writing (i.e., those used for technical journals) and also to improve oral presentation techniques, assisted by Power Point or similar media.[Outline] The basic approach to technical writing in the fields of engineering and the sciences is unified. It can be learned through content analysis and close attention to style. Each journal has its own house requirements. Still, the structure of all peer-reviewed research follows what is referred to as IMRaD: Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion. You describe (1) what you did and (2) why you did it; then you tell (3) how you did it and (4) what you found out. Finally, you must explain clearly what all this means for your readers. |
