  1. Maria Popova: "Imagine describing Russia’s domestic moral decay and its aggression against Ukraine as a “conservative turn”. I understand the desire to avoid hyperbole in academic writing but we also need to avoid ridiculous inaccurate euphemisms. They normalize and whitewash what russia is doing."

  6. The Importance of Peer Reviews By Humans As Oppose To The Machines

    The peer review process is imperative for the advancement of knowledge and the promotion of innovation. It facilitates intellectual exchange by motivating researchers to enhance their methodologies, clarify their findings or interpretations, challenge assumptions, and even investigate potential new avenues that may not have been previously considered.

  7. "In retrospect, these strategies were a form of authorial self-preservation."

    Autoethnography of the rhetorical and emotional dimensions of writing about study limitations:

    The paper draws on 8 manuscripts, 17 drafts, 22 #PeerReview by the author, journal entries, and email exchanges.

    Interesting reflections & it illustrates the challenges and questions, especially if one has not written many manuscripts, yet.

  8. Great @EASE seminar yesterday

    Really good content also for authors, PIs, #PeerReview -ers & people who consider #RCT methodology for future work.

    The discussion was lively and covered some advanced topics.

  9. Being academically relevant as Ur-fascism rages & colonialism murders means, for me, ensuring my scholarship is activist-urgent.

    I have a keynote soon, an event on the Future of #DoctoralWriting, 2 chapters on politics and humanity:

    the 'so what' matters more than ever✊🏼

  10. @DrSuzanne Journals can partner with #SciFlow in order to get their templates into the system. Authors type simply in markdown, can connect their #Zotero library and focus purely on #AcademicWriting.

    Institutions on the other hand, may subscribe to SciFlow to get their employees access to the service. Fin. Works like a charm (in theory).

  11. Hello @annamills, thank you for your work on #AI literacies, pedagogies, and awareness raising. It's helping me, at least, raise awareness within my own academic writing contexts.

    Are you aware of any similar and/or specific work - including your own that I'm not aware of - relating to the use of #LLMs and other #ArtificialIntelligence writing technologies in #DoctoralWriting #DoctoralResearch #ResearchWriting?

  12. My book #WhatMakesWritingAcademic will be available in paperback from September 2023.

    It's relevant to academic writers & their teachers because it engages critically with how knowledge is shaped by the forms of writing we choose.

    You can pre-order from
    bloomsbury.com/uk/what-makes-w as well as from your preferred bookshop.

    If you've read it, please let me know what you think of it and how you've used it.

    Thnx
