Description

This writing group will engage Jackson School graduate students in a semester-long series of group sessions focused on:

(1) understanding requirements and expectations for key JSG writing projects like theses and doctoral research papers,
(2) sharing good examples and technical writing guidance,
(3) planning and setting deadlines for drafts,
(4) developing your writing process and maintaining productivity, and
(5) coordinating systematic peer feedback on successive drafts.

The group will meet on a weekly basis and be facilitated by Adam Papendieck, JSG Writer in Residence.
