In this two part workshop, we address the challenges of conveying your research story in a persuasive way for technical and nontechnical stakeholders. We will focus on various writing forms in engineering that include organization and interpretation of results. These will include technical/non-technical reports, results & discussion sections or articles and theses, and similar types of writing projects.
Specifically participants will practice and discuss strategies for:
- Choosing an appropriate structure for reporting and commenting on data
- Effectively organizing data commentaries
- Integrating figures and visuals in reports
- Structuring and revising reports
