Workshop on Academic Writing for all PGHPE students
28th February 2020
Synopsis of the session
Research and scholarship are among the roles of a teacher. To excel in these areas, one is required to engage in continual professional reflection and renewal, including active participation and interaction with the health professions education community through conferences and publications. In this workshop, the participants mapped out the research and scholarship activities and aligned them with the other functions of academics.
Objectives of this workshop: -
- To demonstrate understanding of writing as a series of tasks, including finding, evaluating, analysing, and synthesizing appropriate sources, and as a process that involves composing, editing, and revising.
- To demonstrate critical reading and analytical skills, including understanding an argument's major assertions and assumptions, and how to evaluate its supporting evidence.
- To demonstrate research skills, integrate your own ideas with those of others, and apply the conventions of attribution and citation correctly.
- To use a Standard Written English and revise and edit your own writing for appropriateness.
- To demonstrate an understanding of the connection between writing and thinking and use writing and reading for inquiry, learning, thinking, and communicating in an academic setting.
