Writing Retreat

The aim of the Writing Retreat is to work as concentrated as possible on the individual writing task; in other words, to devote as much time as possible to active writing.
The input is given in the form of short sessions (2 inputs: writing strategies - Maja Kevdzjia; research methods - Friedrich Hauer) on the one hand, and on the other hand, the participants can receive individual input from the supervisors (Psenner, Kevdzjia, Hauer) at any time. In addition, at the end of each working day there is space for exchange and wrap-up rounds.
In addition, students receive assistance in choosing a topic and formulating the research question; instruction in scientifically correct writing; reflection and discussion of the work progress. Introduction to dissemination strategies.
The general teaching content of the seminar is to support students in organising and writing a scientific text. The choice of the text format to be worked on is up to the students. However, it is clarified and specified with the supervisor. In addition to the individual writing work, a thematic approach, reflection and feedback in the group on a synergetic basis are the goal of the seminar. Experience has shown that the common denominator leads to a fruitful exchange between the individual participants. The students also receive support for participation in research congresses, if this is of interest for a possibly aspired professional or academic career.

The seminar is scheduled to take place as a block – provisionally – in calendar week 46 (9–13 November) at Landuni Drosendorf..
Participation on request.
