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: Differences between British & American Writing
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.

Over the course of your academic career, it is likely that you will write for both British and American journals. However, there are some key differences between the two. This session will look at some of the most relevant differences for academic writing.

Preparing for your upgrade
Microsoft Teams

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

 

Understanding your upgrade - Early stage PhD

Many of us are asked to go through an upgrade process after our first year. This takes us from MPhil to PhD study process. It allows us and colleagues to reflect on the previous year, research knowledge gained, and plans for the next stages.

The session will inform you of the University’s criteria for a successful upgrade process and help prepare you for it. The facilitators will share their own experiences of passing upgrade process and provide you with particular tips and advices that will be useful for you to understand what your need to do and how to successfully pass your own upgrade.

By the end of the workshop, you should be able to:

- Have a better understanding of what is the upgrade process

- Gain practical tips on how to prepare for your upgrade

- Reflect on progress made during your upgrade
