Remembering the Reader: Creating Higher Value in Academic Writing

Clarity in academic writing is good; concision is good; logical organization is good. But none of these matter if your writing is not seen by readers to be valuable to them. Commonly it’s thought that value is a matter not of writing but of content; make the writing clear and logical, and value will take care of itself. In fact, successful academic texts—including successful grant applications—rely on a host of writing techniques specific to value, and not just communicating value, but also creating it.

In this three-hour workshop (9 am to 12:15 pm) Larry McEnerney will lead participants through essential techniques for creating value. Following lunch, participants are invited to return to the workshop room from 1 pm to 4 pm for silent writing time.

Research Project Advisors will also be available for one-on-one or small-group consultations in twenty-minute blocks.

Finding suitable storage solutions for your research data

Strong research data management (RDM) practices are required by funding agencies worldwide. In Canada, following the   launch in 2021, researchers are increasingly being asked to develop data management plans as part of grant applications and to deposit data that directly supports research conclusions into a repository.   

A team from the Centre for Advanced Computing, IT Services, the Library, and the Vice-Principal Research worked together to develop a Research Data Storage Finder tool designed to help researchers identify and assess storage options and services based on their specific data needs.

This session will walk you through:

• Identifying available research data storage options for active, backup, and long-term storage
• Best practices in research data management-related to funder compliance requirements, as well as ethical, legal and commercial obligations
• Queen’s-based resources to support research data storage needs
