When you've completed a draft, how can you be sure that it is structurally sound? Reverse outlining is a scholarly writing technique that you can use to ensure your manuscript makes sense. You can also use reverse outlining to check your work against the structure you planned when you started work.
Participate in this workshop and you will learn the following:
- To apply reverse outlining techniques to drafts
- To identify logical misfires in your writing
- To strengthen your arguments in scholarly writing
Please come to this session with a draft or final version of a current or completed writing project on paper or on screen. This can be a draft of the project you outlined at Strategies for Effective Outlining, the companion workshop that you will hopefully have attended four weeks earlier. But it could be anything that you're working on, or even a piece that you've already published. Any piece of writing can be productively subjected to reverse outlining.
Dr. Marc Ducusin is a two-time SSHRC recipient, who completed his dissertation on Victorian sensation fiction and English sexology. He has taught courses in the English departments at the University of Winnipeg, the University of Manitoba, and McGill, as well as in the Desautels Faculty of Management.
The workshop will be held on McGill's downtown campus on November 9th from 10am to 12pm. Registrants will receive the workshop location in a confirmation email.
