Writing Focus
Microsoft Teams

This event has been organised by Researcher Development. For any enquiries, please contact pgresearchskills@warwick.ac.uk.

 

 

Writing Focus

Have you a chapter/ paper/ article that you need to get on and write?

Are you procrastinating or stuck? Need time commitment or feedback?

The Writing Focus sessions offer you both.

 

Turn up and write in 25-minute chunks, taking a short break in between. This focussed group activity keeps you on task, accountable and productive.

Or are you needing some feedback or advice on grammar, paragraph sign posting or argument construction. Then book yourself 20 minutes with our writing tutor who will help you get back writing.

 

(You can also give yourself some focussed reading time as well)

Bring your current project, your current problem and have 90 minutes of constructive, productive work.

Writing Tips: Focus on Style: How to be more Detailed
Microsoft Teams

Writing tips sessions are different from regular workshops. The session’s topic will be covered in the first 30-45 minutes, and then the rest of the session will be given to writing and getting feedback. You are welcome to attend the first half or the whole session.

Is your writing sparse? Do your readers say that you miss out key details? Then you may need to work on slowing your reading down and explaining each point in more detail. How to do this is the focus of this session.

Proof Reading Circles
Microsoft Teams

Our familiarity with our writing often means that we miss the writing errors in them. In this session, we will discuss some common writing mistakes, and the basic guidelines for proof reading. We will then exchange sections of our writing (maximum 1500 words) and proof read each other’s work.

Qualitative Research Part 2 – Methodologies and analysis (Research Methods)
Microsoft Teams

This workshop aims to provide you with an overview of a range of qualitative analytical skills and methodologies, which can be applied in a range of research settings. This session discusses how Qualitative data can analysed using thematic, grounded theory, narrative, interpretative phenomenological, and ethnographic analysis. In addition, a range of data analysis packages will also be covered.

Research Methods Series: A standalone series, but also to support our understanding of research integrity & ethics; the research methods series will give overviews of qualitative and quantitative or mixed methods; why some researchers will adopt certain methods; and why some approaches are more suitable than others. The sessions will provide general ideas; signposts to follow up on specific areas; the positives and negatives of different approaches. You will need to speak to your department for full research methodology training in your chosen practice.

You can attend the whole series or just pick the ones of specific interest.
