UA College of Nursing Writing Coach

Hi! I'm Dr. Leslie Dupont, the Writing Coach at the UArizona College of Nursing. We'll use this site for writing questions, tips, examples, and announcements.

@UAZNursing - @AuthorJMac gives us a way to think about AI as a great tool if used thoughtfully. AI doesn't do your thinking for you; it does the "other stuff" so you can do your own thinking, writing, etc. #uaconwritecoach #uacongradwrite #uaznursing

[Joanna Maciejewska @AuthorJMac]

You know what the biggest problem with pushing all-things-AI is? Wrong direction.
I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes.

Use a writing audit to keep track of your writing progress. It shows you what's done and still to be done. And seeing your word count increase is motivating.

Downtimes in our writing life can feel like "the quiet before the storm." No projects due today, then suddenly, everything seems due at once! What if you use downtime for planning or brainstorming? Visit us to learn how we can help you prep for that next wave of activity.

[Hugh Kearns @ithinkwellHugh]

To write well you first have to write badly.
Get something down on paper. The first draft won't be very good but then you can improve it.
Stop aiming for a perfect first draft. Give yourself permission to write rubbish. #AcademicChatter #acwri #phDchat #PhDforum #ECRchat

@UAZNursing community: Many resources are available to help you enhance your critical thinking skills. Among them is The News Literacy Project @NewsLitProject, which offers resources for sifting thoughtfully through the ocean of news media we encounter daily. #uaconwritecoach

[The News Literacy Project @NewsLitProject]

What indicates quality journalism? Most importantly, credible news coverage doesn't tell you, "Trust me." It shows you through the standards highlighted ⤵️
