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!

Faith and Science Integration Resources

This is a hodge podge of social media, professional associations, and talks given on the integration of faith and science (especially addressing common 'hot topics' like evolution, cosmology, climate change, and social justice). They're intended to provide ways for faculty and scientists to be able to effectively address student concerns and questions about their ability to integrate faith and science, and to alleviate the pain students often experience when they feel they're being asked to choose between faith and science.
