STEM Writing Resources
These are materials outside of the STEM Writing Project related to teaching writing in undergraduate STEM courses (not just in biology). What does the collection include?
- Practical methods for training new writers is the main topic of posts in this resource.
- Making and interpreting arguments is at the heart of scientific writing. The collection will include evidence-based argumentation posts and resources.
- Reading literature is an important part of learning to write well, so some posts focus on reading skills.
- Data analysis and visualization is key to reporting results, so expect to see posts on graphing data, basic statistics, etc.
- Anything else that seems related to teaching scientific writing.
Know of a resource that should be in the collection? Let us know!
