Hello @annamills, thank you for your work on literacies, pedagogies, and awareness raising. It's helping me, at least, raise awareness within my own academic writing contexts.

Are you aware of any similar and/or specific work - including your own that I'm not aware of - relating to the use of and other writing technologies in ?

Who else is doing research on artificial intelligence and academic writing that is policy and ethics-oriented?

Please boost, if you can, as I am hoping to reach voices & approaches to this, especially from the so-called , namely communities that don't seem to be getting much of a look-in right now on this 'western' concocted concern.

Dear , have any you budgeted for *writing time* when applying for research funding? I've never seen a grant bid that does so, which suggests that writing is not recognised as the it is and is not accounted for in grant time. For example, budgeting for a or a project assistant to ensure grant holders have time to at least draft for the dissemination of their findings would seem reasonable to me but ....?

If you had to read a on how academics (including and ) are actually using writing tools, what would you like the case study to cover?

Asking as part of ongoing research.

The whole thing is a moving target dictated by non-educational imperatives, so, I'm trying to design a case study that is, to some extent, future-proof.

I may now get my thesis printed, 4 years on.

I literally couldn't afford to print it at the time. Then work, job applications, and suddenly, , just numbed the urgency & symbolism of having actually achieved a , supervised by 2 mentors I so admire.

Now that writing is being re-visited all over again (since Plato's Phaedrus), I need a physical record of the writing & thinking that came from human me.

Nothing like a young person to forever remind you to 'get to the point' - my son, now 18, has been reminding me of his since his age of reason (7): mamma, and your point is?!

Related to Roland Barthes' distinction between *écrivant* (someone who writes about subjects that exist & is a transactor of events and ideas = academic writers? GPT?) and *écrivain* (someone whose subject is, [...] merely writing itself)" (Edward Said, The World, the Text and the Critic, p. 60):

In my work, I argue - and assume - that academic writers should also be *écrivain(e)s* because writing is a method of enquiry.

@tedpavlic I'm sure it's not the intention - indeed they add a cautionary note - but this kind of advice leads to HARKing & other questionable research practices that massage research into a neat narrative.

It's the antithesis of practices like . You should start with a research question, a summary of what is known, & then the methods. Post-hoc theorising must be declared. It keeps you honest.

Tip:

When readers pick up a paper, how quickly should they be able to identify the main research question?

Ideally, they should be able to see it in a 15-second scan of the .

Excited to try out mastodon!

I teach research writing at Econ and business school PhD programs. I post writing tips for researchers. I have a book on research writing that guides PhD candidates through the process of building a first draft. And I am working on a second book for undergraduates. If you, too, are a or nerd, I would love to connect with you here! Or if you just want to chat about the joys and horrors of writing.
