Follow on Google News | FORTE granted permission to publish Academic Paper Publishing tutorial from University of ColoradoAs part of program to educate Japanese scientists, Forte was granted permission from University of Colorado libraries, to translate and publish their on-line tutorial, which focuses on particulars of academic paper writing and publishing.
By: FORTE Science Communications There are approximately 827,300(1) Japanese scientists and researchers that belong to academia, research institutes and laboratories in both the public and private sectors. Despite the high per capita number of researchers and the considerable public budget spent annually by MEXT(2) and programs sponsored by JSPS(3), the number of Japanese science papers published in international journals is considered to be relatively low, attributed to the authors’ limitations in their English writing skills. Forte is committed to help local researchers and scientists communicate with the world and to promote the local science community through its pro-bono activities and own grant-in-aid programs. “We believe the material in the on-line tutorial would be an excellent resource in our efforts to educate Japanese professionals and graduate students about the particulars of academic paper writing in English, and to ultimately help them publish their research in their target journals” ‐says William D. Stenson, CEO and founder of Forte Inc. The tutorial will include the basics of academic paper publishing, covering the role of academic publishing, essential steps of planning and writing a paper, publication planning, choosing from different publishing models, type of articles to write, authoring styles, tools and resources for writing, etc. The tutorial also provides hands-on interactive exercises helpful for measuring progress as learning take place.
