                | ESM 514 - Technical Writing for Materials ScientistStudents will examine writing as it appears in published and draft format, taking into account different audience needs. Processes we will cover include: planning, organizing, writing, review, editing and rewriting. Grammar issues, particularly those that challenge non-native speakers, will also be addressed. We will be working with Professor Gerald Graff’s idea of “They Say/I Say,” a cornerstone strategy of academic conversation, in which newer colleagues in a field (i.e., undergraduate and graduate students) learn by apprenticeship how to engage their peers in the discussion of ideas through written format.
