Presented by Steven Ward
Summary
English is the lingua franca for scholarly communication, and most international journals with a wide global readership are printed in English. Submitting manuscripts in poor English can put researchers at a disadvantage and delay the publication of research.
This webinar will highlight the importance of quality English writing and the need to communicate your research effectively. It will also focus on understanding journals and the types of manuscripts they publish, so that you can identify the best type of article for your study.
Who is this for?Beginner- and intermediate-level authors, especially those with science and technology backgrounds, who have frequently had manuscripts rejected by journal editors
Why should you attend?Are you new to the world of academia? If yes, I am sure you are feeling slightly overwhelmed. Many people enter academia with the idea that they would spend most of their time doing exciting new research. Did you feel the same way and are you really doing this or is the reality different?

The most important of these is publishing your research in academic journals. This can be a daunting task for people who are new to academia. This webinar will give you a better understanding of the overall publishing process so that you are not feeling at sea.
