Workshops for students
During the semester break, many students are faced with an intensive writing phase - the term paper or even several term papers need to be written. The event series Short-Cuts accompanies you during this phase. Twice a week, you will receive a short 30-minute impulse for writing your academic paper.
In dem Kurzworkshop geht es darum, was ein Plagiat ausmacht und wie du mit soliden Arbeitstechniken vermeiden kannst zu plagiieren.
Workshops for PhD students
This one-day workshop focuses on the process of writing in the narrower sense and shows various possibilities, approaches, exercises and strategies for getting texts around the PhD going. The workshop is aimed at PhD students of all faculties who are just starting to write or are in the middle of a writing phase.
Female PhD students in the final months of the PhD meet (digitally) for self-directed writing and working groups to motivate themselves on the last meters of the dissertation, to work in a focused way and to exchange ideas about challenges. To this end, there are regular short focus meetings to set goals and write. The focus meetings are framed by three half-day workshops that offer content input as well as time for writing.
Offers for faculty members
Plagiarism is often seen only as annoying misconduct by students, but it also raises central questions of academic practice or points to the fact that important practices are unclear. This one-day workshop for teachers provides information about the very different causes of plagiarism and shows how to support students in acquiring skills that make copying unnecessary.
Peer feedback in your course! With the Textographers program, we want to strengthen writing in the subjects and support writing-affine teaching that combines subject content and academic writing. Textographers are students from your subject who are trained by us and accompany your subject-specific course for one semester with text feedback for your students.
