Kuvaus

This course aims at increasing students’ awareness of the most common organisational principles of research articles whilst also addressing variation between different disciplines and journal requirements. Discourse analytical models will be applied to analyse the underlying structure of individual sections thus helping students to improve their own writing. Participants will receive peer- and-instructor feedback.
