Writing Workshop | SchreibNight 2022

Our programme is ready!

Below you will find the complete SchreibNight programme as well as information on how you can participate in the online event - including a registration link. As always, our goal is to break up the isolation of writing in a quiet room for one night and to create a sense of community and energy boosts around writing!

We invite everyone who wants to start together to the kick-off at 5pm, where anyone who wants to can formulate their goals for the evening. What has been achieved can then be celebrated at the final meeting at midnight! During the night, you can of course simply work on your own projects and get advice on all writing topics from us or on research and Citavi questions from professionals from the library. Or perhaps you would like to take part in one of the mini-workshops or the writing talk on the topic of "Writing together".

Unfortunately, the guest appearance with Professor Daphne Hahn has to be cancelled for health reasons. However, at the announced time, an alternative short input will be offered by the head of the writing workshop.

Why actually write together? What is the power of writing together and mutual feedback? An informal exchange to which all interested parties are invited. | Moderated by Frederike Behrens and Nora Hillebrand
18.30-19.00For whom am I writing? | Substitute programme!

How do I write so that teachers enjoy reading my text? How do I write in a comprehensible and reader-friendly way? Unfortunately, Professor Daphne Hahn has had to cancel for health reasons. We offer a substitute programme - admittedly knitted with a hot needle! A short input of 10-15 minutes will be followed by the opportunity to comment, ask questions and engage in conversation. | Amata Schneider-Ludorff

19.00-19.10Moving break | Klara Heckeroth
20.00-20.30Break | Free and exchange room
20.30-21.30Workshop | Writing Strategies: Do you write like a squirrel or more like an architect?
Do you just write boldly? Or do you prefer to plan everything in detail? Do you work on small pieces of text that you later forge together? Or do you do it completely differently? In this workshop, you can discuss how you go about writing and perhaps expand your own repertoire in the process. | Amata Schneider-Ludorff
21.00-21.10Moving break | Klara Heckeroth
22.00-22.30Break | Free and Exchange Room
22.30-23.30Workshop | Paraphrasing: How do I say it in my words?
When starting out in academic writing, paraphrasing often leaves you unsure whether what you have formulated yourself is too close to the original. We try out a few methods to formulate independently with more confidence. | Amata Schneider-Ludorff
24.00Joint conclusion | What have I achieved today?
We invite all participants to come together again at the witching hour to share and celebrate what they have achieved today!
