Session 5a

Salient Features of (Publishable) Academic English

Date: 25 April 2025 (Day 2)
Time: 10:00 - 11:30
Speaker: Ms. Susan Lopez-Nerney
Location: User Education Room
Tips on how to produce successful, i.e., publishable, research papers in English, abound. The sheer number of these tips can confuse writers hoping to break into publication. This session presents the most salient features of the language of publishable research papers. The goal is to help writers to identify these features and to understand how and why they work, so that they can replicate these features in their own writing. In this session, participants will analyse and discuss these features, and learn with other writers who are working towards the same goal – publication of their work.
