Computer Science Writing Education (CS-WEd)
Improving the writing capabilities of computer science students
Aletta Nylén, Sofia Cassel
The purpose of this project is to improve the way computer science students are able to express themselves in writing. This is done by giving students feedback both on the linguistic as well as on the subject-related content of written assignments and reports.
Because written assignments occur in courses in every year of the computer science program, students will get regular feedback on their writing, as well as more opportunities to practice their writing skills.
Resources for students
We would like you to develop better writing skills during your time as a computer science student. For this reason, we have collected resources to help you get started and to write academic text.
Get started writing! Read about writing, peer review, and how to edit your text.
