VDP Academic Writing Workshop From First to Final Draft: Revising Academic Texts - Markus Rheindorf Tuesday, October 15, 2024, 13:00 - 14:30 Room 3A, NIG 3rd floor, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna For the winter semester 2024-25, the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy (VDP) and the Early Career Scholars Working Group of the East European Network for Philosophy of Science (EENPS) are planning a hybrid kick-off workshop to start into our weekly Writing Evenings. The Academic Writing Workshop “From First to Final Draft: Revising Academic Texts” will focus on strategies for revising and finalizing academic texts. The workshop covers the different aspects and stages of reworking and revising academic texts at PhD level. This includes recognizing issues and translating feedback into concrete issues. We will cover structural revisions (paragraphs, connecting paragraphs, argumentation structure), reading flow, style (personal/impersonal, vague/precise), positioning (critique of sources, confident position), and succinctness (concise phrasing to reduce word count). The workshop is tailored to PhD-Students, but master’s students are also welcome to join. To register, please send a short email to lisa.tragbar(a)univie.ac.at, indicating whether you would like to join online or in person. The zoom link will be sent out about an hour in advance. Optionally join our Writing Evening afterwards, 15:00-19:00, NIG, 3A VDP Writing Evenings Winter Semester 2024-25 Tuesdays, 15:00-19:00, Room 3A, NIG 3rd floor, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna The VDP Writing Evenings provide an opportunity for focused work on dissertations and academic texts.
