Course description
This three-hour seminar treats writing practice as something you can observe, understand and cultivate over time. Using Helen Sword's BASE framework as a starting point, you'll map the foundations of your own writing practice, discuss them with fellow writers, and explore ways you can improve. You'll leave the seminar with a clearer sense of how you work, and a concrete next step toward a practice that fits you. Join us!
The seminar is led by David Burke, Writing Pedagogue and Head of the Academic Writing Centre at UiO.
