Writing Scientific English
Extra material for the 3rd Edition of Tim Skern’s Workbook
Six new videos were made for this edition in order to demonstrate my approach to supporting students in giving scientific talks in English. I hope that you will find the approach useful for preparing your presentations.
- Tim Skern
First of all, here are two videos from the second edition. In the first, there are excerpts from a lecture of mine on “Writing and Speaking Scientific English”. In the second, I discuss aspects of scientific writing in English with Martina Dötsch, a former PhD student from the Max Perutz Labs.
The first video sets the scene and introduces the speakers. Videos two to five contain three minute speeches given by former students of my courses; at the end of each speech, the student receives a brief feedback. In the sixth video, one of the students interviews me on how best to obtain a place in a laboratory for an Erasmus stay abroad.
Two files contain the pronunciation of scientific vocabulary from my books. In the first file, the words are pronounced with an American accent, in the second with an English accent.
