The Fediverse tools include which seems not to be supported anymore and which looks nice but would require some work, seems to require a server. I have a domain and hosting at Google but don't know if that can work.

Advice? Ideas? Offers of collaboration? All are welcome. 🙂

Using to develop the writer, rather than the writing.

Al can be used to fix grammar mistakes or reword writing to be 'more academic' but this is unlikely to improve the writers knowledge or skills.

However using Al as a tool for brainstorming or to provide potential options of structure and organisation to writing. By using it as scaffolding while constantly reflecting on the feedback.

High impact articles from the 1970s:
· introduction jumps straight into the topic
· on average 10 references, rarely more than 20
· data presented exclusively in diagrams
· lots of active speech; comfortable use of "we" and names of other researchers

The other day in my Scientific Writing class, I asked students how many had been taught NOT to use I/we or the active voice in .

Almost every hand went up.

This makes me sad. Writing is hard enough without our teaching like it's still the 1960s!

Today in my class, one of my favourite workshops. Students take a classic paper that isn't in IMRaD format, cut it up, and reassemble - and discuss whether it's an improvement. Here: Roger Paine (1966), on complexity in food webs.
