Workshop for First-Year Students: Becoming a Scholar
Workshop for First-Year Students: Becoming a Scholar In-Person
|
In this workshop, you will think about the nature of scholarly activity and their own identities as scholars in the university setting. You will examine how scholars pose questions, construct arguments, and respond to previous positions in a developing exchange we call the “scholarly conversation.” What sorts of procedures do scholars follow and why are they important? How are scholarly publications produced, reviewed, and disseminated within academic communities? What different forms does scholarly inquiry take across the academic divisions of the humanities, social sciences, and sciences? In addition to reflecting on these large questions, you will practice finding and evaluating scholarly sources in an area of interest. This workshop was developed for first-year students, but any undergraduate is welcome to attend! Please bring your own device, such as a laptop or tablet. |
