This practical session explores how to effectively structure the results and discussion sections of your journal article, covering common functional parts, discipline-specific options, and the difference between presenting findings and making claims.
The participants in this recording each brought an exemplar journal article which are referred to throughout the session. To get the most out of the recording we recommend that you source their own journal article for the activities: from your target journal and written by someone else but with similar data and analysis to your own research. This needs to be a study, not a protocol, so that it has results and discussion sections.
About the facilitator
Cassily has worked in universities for 20 years in Group-of-Eight, regional and international universities, in academic literacy, researcher development and English linguistics. In recent years she has supported thousands of research candidates, early career researchers, supervisors and other academic staff and students with counselling, teaching, writing groups, writing feedback and coaching. In addition to her degrees in linguistics and education, she is a qualified social worker. She never finished her own PhD, many years ago – and doesn’t regret it – but has travelled that journey with others many times since then.
