Research Writing OERs for Faculty

The Center for Communication Excellence (CCE) has been awarded an Affordable Course Materials Jumpstart Initiatives grant “Sustainable Open Educational Resource (OER) and AI-Based Infrastructure for Research Writing" to spread the word to faculty about invaluable research writing-related resources we have developed, tested, and refined. These OERs assist research writers in improving their abilities to write up their research in ways that are clear, argument-driven, and in line with the expectations of writing in their disciplines.

1. The “Research Writing Tutor,” an AI technology that supplies critical, constructive feedback on drafts of students’ research articles based on a cross-comparison with published research articles in their disciplines.
2. “Preparing to Publish,” an open-access e-guide that provides detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to write up research for publication.
