    ProTip


    A helpful hint from those that came before

    But what if we're not ready? It is okay if the paper is not done yet- just be sure you leave this class with all the students knowing what needs to be done to get this paper out, and schedule regular check-ins to help make progress towards completion. An authorship on a manuscript is a powerful motivator for students, especially one that is independent of their primary advisor!

Discussion
