Diagrams is the only conference series that provides a united forum for
all areas that are concerned with the study of diagrams and has a
multidisciplinary emphasis.
The goal of the Diagrams 2021 Graduate Symposium is twofold. Firstly,
the Symposium will provide senior graduate students and recent Masters
and Doctoral graduates with the opportunity to present their research.
Established researchers will provide feedback and comments on each of
the presentations. Secondly, the Symposium will provide students with an
opportunity to network with each other as future colleagues.
In previous Diagrams Graduate Symposiums, lively and useful discussions
have enabled students to receive suggestions about their on-going
research and allowed more experienced participants to hear some fresh
ideas and view some of the new trends in the field.
The Graduate Symposium will include an Inspirational Early Career
Researcher Invited Talk
(http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2021/index.php/keynotes/).
The invitation to deliver this talk is reserved for an active Diagrams
researcher, within approximately ten years of their PhD, who has
demonstrable potential to be a major leadership force within the
community. The Inspirational ECR talk will be open to the entire
Diagrams delegation.
Submission Requirements
Submissions that focus on any aspect of diagrams research are welcome.
Topics of interest are the same as those given in the calls for papers
for the three conference tracks:
http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2021/index.php/calls/main-track/
http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2021/index.php/calls/philosophy/
http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2021/index.php/calls/psychology-of-diagrams/.
Students who wish to present their work at the symposium must submit a
3-page report describing
– their thesis topic,
– the approach being taken,
– the work that has been completed,
– the expected contributions of the research
– any necessary acknowledgements (for example, supervision team and
source funding).
The student should be the sole author of their submission and the
supervisor names should be included in the acknowledgements section.
The report must be submitted in Springer LNCS format.
Authors of accepted submissions will be expected to be in attendance at
the virtual conference to present their research and respond to
questions presented by delegates. All presenters must accept that it is
not within the power of the organisers to prevent delegates from
recording talks. However, when registering, delegates will be asked to
confirm that they will not record any part of the conference.
More details can be found at
http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2021/index.php/calls/graduate-symposium/.
Supervisor Support
Students who submit to the graduate symposium must ask their main or
lead supervisor to submit a short supporting statement, by email to
Mohanad Alqadah, msqadah ‘@’ uqu.edu.sa.
The supporting statement should confirm that the supervisor supports the
student’s participation in the symposium and briefly explain why the
student will benefit.
It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that their supervisor
submits the supporting statement.

Subject: Research Writing Workshop 2021
Dear Colleagues,
To prepare for a lecture next week at Tongji University, I have prepared an
update of the Research Writing Workshop slide deck. If you’d like a copy, you
will find it in .pdf format at this URL:
https://www.academia.edu/2953871/Friedman_2021_Research_Writing_Workshop
As with all previous editions, this document is released under the Creative
Commons license. You are free to use it in teaching, to reprint, and circulate
it as you wish.
When I use it as the basis of a seminar, it requires about three hours.
Sometimes, it may require a little more time when students have many questions.
With the new Zoom technology, I can deliver the seminar remote.
For those who want to go deeper, Prof. Helen Sword has one of the world’s best
web sites. Along with a host of free resources and useful information, there is
a members-only web site called WriteSPACE.
https://www.helensword.com
Prof. Sword’s (2012, 2016, 2017) three books are among the best available on
good writing for academic and scholarly purposes. Her web site is quite useful,
and the members-only site provides valuable resources for those who work with
doctoral students. The bookstore also provides valuable suggestions for library
acquisition — and for your own bookshelf.
While Helen Sword’s work is the best, the Research Writing Workshop remains
useful — and it is free.

A special tip of the hat to Humanist, where I harvested a very good quote from
Robert Amsler.
Yours,
Ken Friedman
