Workshop: Blogging for Academics

Are you a PhD student?
Engels - Language & Training Centre (2017)

Introduction

As researchers, we often have to wait months to get our research out to the public through the journal publication process, and even then, it may not reach a very wide audience. But what if your research is something the general public might really enjoy reading about? This is where starting your own academic blog can really be a boon. It allows you to reach a wider audience and also helps you to find ways of explaining your research through a more popular style of writing.
