PE&RC Writing week 

Monday 9 - Friday 13 December 2024 

 

Scope

This week provides PhDs, postdocs and other academics space and time to focus on the writing of a paper or a thesis chapter. Hence it is meant for those individuals who are in the process of writing a paper or thesis chapter. 

The five days will be structured in writing and possible feedback sessions and we will have one or two workshops on effective writing and what to pay attention to. Besides the (intensive) sessions there will also be time for relaxation during the day. A detailed programme will follow soon. 

Programme

Monday morning will be dedicated to the workshop about typical writing pitfalls such as procrastination, perfectionism, and information selection. The participants learn effective strategies for the different phases of the writing process (prepare, write, revise). Attention is also paid to dealing with feedback and managing the feedback you receive, and how to reflect on your writing. You will also have the opportunity to work 1-1 with the lecturer. The rest of the week will be dedicated to writing and feedback sessions.
