Academic Writing Workshop #3

Elisabeth van Stam (UW Writing and Communication Centre)

Join us for our ongoing writing series on clarity in scientific writing. During this session, we will cover theory and practical examples related to active vs. passive voice, verb tense in scientific writing, parallel structure and more.

For those of you who wish to discuss their own writing, Elisabeth will hold short consultations (10-15 minutes) for an hour after the scheduled workshop. Please come prepared with specific questions and/or a short passage of writing (~1 paragraph). Longer consultations can be scheduled at the Writing and Communication Centre at South Campus Hall.

Note: Please bring your pen/paper and/or a computer for an active participation of the workshop.

If you are coming from the Lazaridis Centre, take the 11:35am shuttle to RAC 1 and return on the 1:15pm shuttle.
