The Statistics
It's true: becoming a proficient scholarly writer is challenging for many master's students and doctoral students. In fact, approximately 50% of doctoral students who start a PhD program don’t finish and remain ABD (All But Dissertation). The Chronicle of Higher Education, the Council of Graduate Schools and the National Science Foundation publish detailed reports on the low percentage of people who earn a doctorate each year.
Underdeveloped academic writing abilities should never be the reason a graduate student doesn’t graduate or a faculty member doesn't earn tenure. Research-based writing is an academic skill, so those willing to work and seek the help needed can receive the proper instruction, techniques and guidance to grow as research-based writers.
At Cultivate the Writer (CTW), we are dedicated to removing writing as a barrier to your success. We have a comprehensive program of campus-based workshops as well as online graduate level writing courses, editing services and writing coaching to support you in writing about research effectively and getting published. We welcome the opportunity to partner with you or your university/organization to cultivate the writer within!
Revise Your Paper For Publication (series)
Do you have course paper that a faulty member suggested that you publish, or are you an early tenure faculty member who has been intending to transform a former paper into an article? If so, this workshop series is for you. It guides participants, step by step, through the process of revising a course paper or dissertation chapter into a journal article.
