Jeff Zuckerman hosting Scholarly Writing: Strategies for Reading the Literature, Filling the Page, and Finding your Academic Voice5 views4:30–6 p.m.
Writing Skills Session
Scholarly Writing: Strategies for Reading the Literature,
Filling the Page, and Finding Your Academic
Voice. . . . . . . . . . . . Dallas D3, 1st Floor Conference Center
Recommended for students in all Milestones
Many students struggle to make sense of the academic
literature. We are expected to analyze difficult texts, even
though we can’t recall ever being given the tools to do so.
Moreover, our own voice is squashed by the weighty
examples of what we read. In this session, we will
exchange strategies for note taking, annotating, organizing,
outlining, overcoming writer’s block, and finding a
comfortable scholarly voice.
Jeff Zuckerman, M.S.W., M.A.

Jeff Zuckerman explaining common blunders in synthesis8 viewsScholarly writing at the doctoral level is expected to do more than simply summarize and must not include unsubstantiated opinion. Jeff Zuckerman shows one common error in writing--beginning with a direct quotation. While quotations are important to support claims in scholarly writing, the topic must be introduced before the quotation has any context. While it may have a rhetorical or dramatic value in non-scholarly writing, it is preferable to introduce all quotations prior to using them.

Finding your sholarly voice: Opinion3 viewsScholarly writing must not include opinion not substantiated by reputable evidence. This example, from a popular magazine, demonstrates non-scholarly writing, including opinion with no citations and imprecise language.
