Scientific Writing (1, 2, 3)
Writing a PhD thesis might not be an
easy task for all students. Even though students know they need to use a
language which is different from their own, they may not know what sort of
language to use in writing a thesis.
This workshop will provide an
introduction to the linguistic resources and conventions of medical texts as an
academic discourse.
Objectives
This workshop attempts to:
· raise awareness of the type of
language used in medical texts.
· show how different linguistic
resources make thesis writing clearer.
· represent specific features of
language used in academic/medical texts.
· identify language conventions and
learn how to use them to express ideas explicitly and clearly in medical texts.
· raise awareness of how to use language
to evaluate previous work, theories, and research.
· show how linguistic conventions are
used in making a judgement.
