Please note that this is the same workshop as the Nov. 18 sessions at 12:00PM and 4:00PM.
In this one-hour workshop, we will practice four basic principles of writing in plain language.
You may be wondering, what is plain language? Good question. "Plain language" is way of communicating information simply and efficiently to your audiences. By using plain language, you relieve your reader (or listener) of the extra effort required to interpret jargon or process long sentences.
As a scholar, when would you use plain language? Another good question. Plain language principles are key to successful grant proposals, executive summaries, cover letters, policy memos, and other writing formats. Most of the principles will even make your academic writing stronger.
