Schedule:
- 16 Aug. (09:00 – 16:00)
About
This workshop offers instruction in the skills needed to successfully write academic publications. The workshop will be divided into two sessions. The first session will address the various stages of paper writing (outlines, abstracts, literature reviews, overall structure, writing style and strategies, submission for publication). This course focuses specifically on writing in the social sciences, which have their particular structures and expectations commonly distinct from most natural science fields.
The second session will introduce participants to fundamental bookmaking processes and techniques that make the book a generative medium for social science research. The workshop will provides graduate students, early-career researchers and post-docs an introduction to the basics of writing and editing academic books. A focus will be on using PhD and Postdoc research as a means of generating viable book publications. The course will cover the complete workflow of the process from deciding to write a book through finding the best publisher, writing a proposal, working with a commissioning editor, writing and editing the manuscript, and marketing the book after publication.
