Description
In this event, we'll hear Rainer Glaser reflect on his own experience teaching a writing-intensive course, “Scientific Writing in Chemistry,” at University of Missouri. For this course, Glaser developed an assignment-based curriculum to instruct students on best practices in all aspects of science communication and to educate them about the scientific publication process. The course emphasizes peer review as an integral and essential part of the process of science and the peer review tasks evolve from rubric-based peer assessments to free-format scientific peer review.
