Aim and content
THE WRITER DEVELOPMENT COURSE HAS TWO PARTS: PART A AND PART B. YOU NEED BOTH PARTS TO PASS WRITER DEVELOPMENT

It is not a course in grammar, although some tips on how to avoid typical mistakes are included. Rather, the course focuses on writers' understanding their own process of writing, and using that understanding to take control of the process, from beginning to end.

One aim is to help the participants perceive the activities that come before, during and after the precise structuring of text as invaluable and legitimate parts of the writing process. In helping the participants to perceive of themselves as writers even when they are not actually putting words on paper, the course will also help the participants in structuring these other important activities much more efficiently.

Another component of the course is helping writers understand different types of feedback, and using this understanding to be able to recognize what type of feedback would be most useful for them at any point in the writing process.

As it focuses on the entire writing process, this course is suitable for students who are just starting their PhD as well as those who are nearing the end of writing their theses. Students will leave the course with a better understanding of themselves as writers, and with a toolbox to help them take control of their writing process and feedback needs.

Remarks
Once you have filled in the registration form the registration is considered binding and the following rules apply: Up until two weeks before the start of the course, it is possible to opt out, without having to pay participation fees. Beyond this date you will be charged the full participation fee.

Participants are required to cover any and all costs pertaining to this course themselves. Each participant is responsible for ensuring that the financially responsible body (typically the home institute) accepts all costs before signing up for this course.

In order to run the course, we must have at least 8 registrations 25 days before the start date of the course (this is because the course venue has a 25 day notice cancellation policy), so do sign up early if you want to be sure the course runs.
