Tips From The Online Coach

Together with his team, Krings has developed an online coach. The portal is interdisciplinary and contains over 300 text modules with tips on all phases of a scientific writing project.

Wise Strategies

"The recommendations are not the ultimate wisdom but a pool of proven strategies," Krings says, advising, for example, to write in writing blocks simply for three days nothing. It would also be better to stop in the middle of a text than to finish a paragraph. "You usually want too much. It is important first to define the content and then find the form, "says the scribe http://www.apexessays.com/.

Stanford and Harvard Universities

To advise students literally is a thing of the past at American universities. Ninety percent of the universities there offer ideal thesis courses in non-specialist disciplines, including the elite high schools Stanford and Harvard.

Other Institutions

There are no dozens of such institutions. The first "writing lab" was created in Bielefeld. The founder, the pedagogue and sociologist Andrea Frank, had spent some time in the United States after her studies, where she became acquainted with the "Writing Center" and "Writing Labs." "In the United States, it was mainly about balancing student shortcomings," says Frank.

Lifelong Learning 

But now this was different; In the sense of lifelong learning, we also turn to higher semesters. Her stay in America inspired Frank to set up a writing service center in Bielefeld as well. In 1993 she began this German pioneering project with two assistants and 48,000 DM starting capital. Today the writing lab is an integral part of the university.
