'Writing for Peer Reviewed Journals' by Professor Claudia Ruitenberg
Where: Virtual, on Zoom
When: Tuesday May 18th, 12:00-1:00pm PDT
Description This workshop will help you decide how to turn a good idea into a good manuscript for a relevant scholarly journal. It is part both of the “Writing for Publishing” series and the “Proposal Writing” series, as applications for scholarships and fellowships are strengthened by a record of publications. Questions that will be addressed in the workshop include:
- My course paper got an A! Is it ready to submit to a journal? What is the difference between a good course paper and a strong journal manuscript?
- My scholarship application would be stronger if I had some publications. How can I get some publications on my CV?
- How do I select a scholarly journal to submit my article manuscript?
- What do reviewers look for in a manuscript?
- What is the difference between a “decline” and “revise and resubmit”?
EDST Trivia Night
Where: Virtual, on Zoom
When: Friday May 21st, 6:00-8:00pm PDT
Description Save the date! We know this past year has been stressful for many of you, but summer is here, and even though classes are still running it's important to take a break and connect with each other. Join us on Zoom for a game of virtual trivia. Dress up, grab a drink of choice, and log in to play a rousing game!
All you have to do is join the Zoom meeting and we will take care of the rest - no need to form a team ahead of time.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to reach out to the GAA team at edst.gaa@ubc.ca.
