CIRTL Scholar Project: Unpacking Abstracts

CIRTL Scholar is the highest CIRTL designation and represents entrance into the field of teaching and learning. CIRTL Scholars take an aspect of their teaching or research from their time in the CIRTL program and publish or present on this work for a specific audience. If you're interested in becoming a CIRTL Scholar, let us know!

Educational psychology graduate student Faqryza Ab Latif's article, published in Writing Spaces: Assignments & Activities Archive, comes from an in-class activity she designed in IA621: Teaching Writing in Spring 2022. In this activity, she walks readers through helping students learn to identify the parts of an abstract in a social science paper so they. can adapt those conventions to their own writing. Congratulations, Faqryza!
