Dear Alex,
Thank you for the useful links and helpful ideas, I really like your blog!
Was wondering if you’ve got any tips on how to write a journal article (formal and publishable) based on an informal interactive workshop. I can’t find anything anywhere online, and never read an article based on a workshop I had attended, so I’m not sure what to look out for as I’m writing, what to keep in mind, and how to link the two different media of workshop and journal article together, by giving the practical ideas shared a more academic backing. Do you have any advice or references to other links, perhaps?
Thanks a lot!
If you mean an academic, peer reviewed journal (the kind you’d need lots of references in), I’m afraid I’ve only ever published reviews in them, never articles/ papers. If you mean an article in a more practical ELT magazine like EtP, I have actually linked a workshop and article together a few times. My basic tactic is to start with a big mind map of all the things that could go in both the workshop and the article on the topic (e.g. everything you could possibly mention about “Teaching FCE”), and to add any extra ideas that come up in the workshop to the mind map before I write the article.
