A NISS/ASA Writing Workshop for New Researchers

该奖项将支持一门关于有效技术写作的课程，面向那些寻求发表研究成果或以联邦资助提案的形式提出研究计划的统计科学新研究人员。 新的研究人员往往难以传播他们的研究成果，不是因为研究的质量，而是因为特定研究的出版地点选择不当，和/或因为技术材料向选定的受众的介绍不佳。国家统计科学研究所和美国统计协会将管理该讲习班。 该讲习班将首先就技术文章或赠款申请材料的组织、技术写作技巧以及统计科学主要期刊的具体任务和受众举办辅导班。然后，每个参与的新研究人员将单独与一位经验丰富的期刊编辑合作，作为导师，在个性化的基础上解决这些问题，以起草新研究人员正在进行的工作。根据本指南的修订将由导师进行批评，以确保新的研究人员的写作技巧的实施已经成功的文章或拨款建议提交审查之前。统计计划官员同意，这门课程是必不可少的健康的专业，并建议其在所要求的资金水平的支持。该奖项将支持一个有效的技术写作课程，为新的研究人员在统计科学谁寻求发表他们的研究或介绍他们的研究计划，在联邦资助的形式。 新的研究人员往往难以传播他们的研究成果，不是因为研究的质量，而是因为特定研究的出版地点选择不当，和/或因为技术材料向选定的受众的介绍不佳。国家统计科学研究所和美国统计协会将管理该讲习班。 该讲习班将首先就技术文章或赠款申请材料的组织、技术写作技巧以及统计科学主要期刊的具体任务和受众举办辅导班。然后，每个参与的新研究人员将单独与一位经验丰富的期刊编辑合作，作为导师，在个性化的基础上解决这些问题，以起草新研究人员正在进行的工作。根据本指南的修订将由导师进行批评，以确保新的研究人员的写作技巧的实施已经成功的文章或拨款建议提交审查之前。统计方案干事同意，这一课程对该专业的健康至关重要，并建议按所要求的资金水平提供支助。

This award will support a course on effective technical writing for new researchers in the statistical sciences who seek to publish their research or to present their research plans in the form of grant proposals for federal funding. New researchers often have difficulty disseminating their research results, not because of the quality of the research, but rather because of inappropriate choices of publication venues for the particular research and/or because of poor presentation of technical material to the chosen audience. The National Institute of Statistical Sciences and the American Statistical Association will manage the workshop. This workshop will open with tutorial sessions on the organization of material for a technical article or grant application, on technical writing techniques and on the specific missions and audiences of key journals in the statistical sciences. Then each participating new researcher will work individually with an experienced journal editor as mentor to address these issues on an individualized basis for draft of the new researcher's work in progress. Revisions following this guidance will be critiqued by the mentor to assure that the new researcher's implementation of writing techniques has been successful before the article or the grant proposal is submitted for review. The Statistics Program Officers agree that this course is essential to the health of the profession and recommend its support at the requested level of funding.This award will support a course on effective technical writing for new researchers in the statistical sciences who seek to publish their research or to present their research plans in the form of grant proposals for federal funding.
