This course is designed to develop graduate students' ability in writing research papers in English. It introduces students to the organization and linguistic features of research paper writing. Attention will also be paid to ways for editing one's paper for precision, concision, and accuracy. Through readings, lectures and discussions, writing assignments, peer reviews, and writing consultation, students should be able to: -- improve writing and critical thinking skills needed for academic success. --become familiar with the language and structure conventions of a research paper. -- critically and systematically evaluate your own texts and those of your peers. -- give and take constructive criticism and apply this criticism in revising your texts. -- develop your writing identity as a confident researcher and writer in your discipline.
1. VERY IMPORTANT! Students who wish to take this course MUST attend the first day of class. Those who register but miss the first class will be dropped from the class. 2. It is preferred that students plan to write or revise a research paper or thesis during the semester. Students who do not have any kind of writing project for an empirical study should consult the instructor after the first meeting to set up alternative writing tasks for the semester.
