14.40‐1540 Exam part 2: A short paper including figures to be provided to course participants on the first day of the course. We discuss caveats and problems in this exam exercise in plenum, suggestions for solutions are provided by the participants. The text is most probably (way) outside your experience and interests? Perhaps you understand less than half of the text? Can you nevertheless use generic writing skills and “recipes” to answer the questions, write the abstract and propose a title? If you think not, you should definitely be here for this session.
About the course exam:
Part 1.: Your own article text.
Part 2.: A short paper including figures to be provided to course participants on the first day of the course.
‐ Identify the relevant text that answer the questions, provide brief answers to all questions.
‐ Use a recipe to write an abstract for the paper (e.g. Nature’s recipe, Mimi Zeiger or Chicago).
‐ Propose a Title; indicate if this is declarative, descriptive, interrogative or something else.
- You must fill in the cover sheet indicating which experienced person you have discussed with. Include a description of your article, a discussion of feedback from your course group (and experienced colleague/supervisor), an overview of your manuscript changes with reasons for these.
- The cover sheet is attached to your article file, changes are indicated with “track changes” in MS Word, and any comments are included.
