Aanbieding 1 met studiegidsnummer 4023246DNR voor alle studenten in het 2e semester met een inleidend master niveau.
With an introduction to the academic culture the student learns about the professional expectations regarding publications. The classes (with classroom tasks) on academic writing concern the structure of a professional publication (types of articles), from the onset, planning, choosing a topic, details of actual writing (vocabulary, style, et cetera) to coping with remarks made by peers. Concerning reference styles the student is introduced to the American Chemical Society reference style (ACS) and the Royal Society of Chemistry reference style (RSC). Students are shown the tricks of the trade regarding scientific writing as well as scientific oral presentation (peer2peer: writing an abstract, creating a graphical abstract, designing a scientific poster, preparing a computer presentation and writing a scientific paper, performing a pitch and doing a conference presentation. Weekly assignments will be assessed in class. Science communication (expert2non-expert) —oral ad writing— will also be practiced: talking to journalists, writing a newspaper column, playing the social media. Meanwhile, students learn to be empathic by role playing as peer reviewers, journalists, and laypeople. Students are introduced to all kinds of ethical issues related to scientific and science communication with which they learn to deal inspired by humanistic values. Evidently, all assignments are content wise related to the topic the student is performing research on in view of his/her master thesis – the assignments do not need any further topical reading. All comes together in a final public poster session by the end of the semester to which the faculty is invited.
