For the second major writing project of the semester, you’ll produce a comparative rhetorical
analysis by choosing between two different options—scientific or political discourse—and
finding and comparing two instances of rhetorical discourse. Whatever option you select, you’ll
need to address the same questions as you develop your understanding of rhetorical discourse
and the way different discourses address differences in rhetorical situation:
1. The question of exigence: What is the discourse about? What need or purpose does the
discourse address? What fundamental values are at stake? What is the discourse trying to
accomplish—and how successful is it?
2. The question of the rhetor: Who is—or are—the rhetor or rhetors? Who is responsible for the
discourse? Who created it? Does the rhetor successfully establish ethos? Why or why not? How
does the discourse itself invoke a particular rhetor? Who sponsored the discourse, and how?
3. The question of audience: For whom is the discourse intended? To whom would this
discourse appeal? Who is the actual audience, and who is the audience invoked or imagined by
the discourse itself? Does the discourse invite the audience to adopt a new role, a new identity?
4. The question of constraints: What constraints did the rhetor have to take into account—what
factors outside of the discourse and beyond the rhetor’s control might influence the audience’s
response to the discourse? Are they negative or positive constraints? How did the rhetor
accommodate those constraints? Was the rhetor successful?
5. The question of genre: What is the genre of the text, and what purpose does this genre
typically serve? How do audience expectations of the genre contribute to our understanding of
the exigence, the intended audience, and the rhetor? What constraints does the genre
introduce?
These constituents of rhetorical situations aren’t an outline for your project; you won’t march
through each of them in succession in the body of your project. Rather, they’re your initial
research questions that will help you to analyze thoroughly the rhetorical dimensions of the texts
you select.
The form and structure of your project will depend, finally, on a refined research question that
will develop out of your research and your understanding of how your chosen texts work.

II. Formatting Guidelines
Margins
All copies of a thesis or dissertation must have the following uniform margins throughout the entire document:
Left: 1″ (or 1 1/4" to ensure sufficient room for binding the work if desired)
Right: 1″
Bottom: 1″ (with allowances for page numbers; see section on Pagination)
Top: 1″
Exceptions: The first page of each chapter (including the introduction, if any) begins 2″ from the top of the page. Also, the headings on the title page, abstract, first page of the dedication/ acknowledgements/preface (if any), and first page of the table of contents begin 2″ from the top of the page.
Non-Traditional Formats
Non-traditional theses or dissertations such as whole works comprised of digital, artistic, video, or performance materials (i.e., no written text, chapters, or articles) are acceptable if approved by your committee and graduate program. A PDF document with a title page, copyright page, and abstract at minimum are required to be submitted along with any relevant supplemental files.
Font Type and Size
To ensure clear and legible text for all copies, choose a TrueType font recommended by ProQuest Dissertation Publishing. A list of recommended fonts can be found on ProQuest's sitepdf icon.
Fonts must be 10, 11, or 12 points in size. Superscripts and subscripts (e.g., formulas, or footnote or endnote numbers) should be no more than 2 points smaller than the font size used for the body of the text.
Spacing and Indentation
Space and indent your thesis or dissertation following these guidelines:
Spacing and Indentation with mesaurements described in surrounding text
The text must appear in a single column on each page and be double-spaced throughout the document. Do not arrange chapter text in multiple columns.
New paragraphs must be indicated by a consistent tab indentation throughout the entire document.
The document text must be left-justified, not centered or right-justified.
For blocked quotations, indent the entire text of the quotation consistently from the left margin.
Ensure headings are not left hanging alone on the bottom of a prior page. The text following should be moved up or the heading should be moved down. This is something to check near the end of formatting, as other adjustments to text and spacing may change where headings appear on the page.
Exceptions: Blocked quotations, notes, captions, legends, and long headings must be single-spaced throughout the document and double-spaced between items.
Pagination
Paginate your thesis or dissertation following these guidelines:
Use lower case Roman numerals (ii, iii, iv, etc.) on all pages preceding the first page of chapter one. The title page counts as page i, but the number does not appear. Therefore, the first page showing a number will be the copyright page with ii at the bottom.
Arabic numerals (beginning with 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) start at chapter one or the introduction, if applicable. Arabic numbers must be included on all pages of the text, illustr
This presentation has been used to guide workshops on research and academic writing conventions for upperclassman and first-year graduate students. However, it could be adapted for a first and second year student audience. The content is rich, emphasizing reflection, research/inquiry, as well as grammar. This material also demonstrates how to use new media as part of an overall research strategy. The presentation is designed to be presented interactively with writers across the disciplines, multilingual writers, and any writer unfamiliar with the academic writing process. The content is not linear, as many slides could be clipped and customized for integration into a first-year writing course, or even a session or workshop for graduate student writers of any classification.
Navigating the Misinformation Minefield: The Role of Higher Education in the ...Mark Carrigan
In an age where generative AI is becoming increasingly sophisticated, the potential for fraud and misinformation has reached unprecedented levels. This keynote will begin with a personal case study exploring how the speaker became the target of a generative AI scam, highlighting the convincing nature of these deceptions. Building upon this experience, the talk will delve into the broader implications of generative AI for the spread of misinformation and the erosion of trust in online spaces. As the line between truth and falsehood becomes increasingly blurred, the role of education in equipping individuals with the critical thinking skills needed to navigate this complex landscape becomes paramount. The keynote will argue that empowering postgraduate social science researchers with the tools to critically engage with generative AI is not only essential for their own work but also for the wider fight against misinformation.
Platform Capitalism and the New Value Economy in the Academy Mark Carrigan
The arrival of what is being called the ‘big data’ revolution in societies around the globe has presented social scientists with new challenges as to how best to understand it as a phenomenon, on the one hand, and what conceptual and methodological approaches we might use to research it, on the other (e.g. Burrows and Savage, 2017; Venturini et al., 2017). The focus of this World Yearbook on big data and comparative methodology is thus a timely opportunity to engage with, and begin to theorize, these developments.
This is not to suggest the matter of data, the academy and comparison is an under researched area. Far from it! There is a growing body of published work on big data-driven global rankings of universities. However much of this commentary is either a critique of quantification, with the argument that numbers are political, or to show how such comparisons generate anxiety about overall placements in ranking thus stimulating efforts to improve.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

4. What is Quality? Or Excellence?
• The answer is not straightforward. Is it cutting
edge? Popular? Fashionable? Topical?
• Do we look at SSCI citations? Or google
scholar citations?
• Do we look at the criteria established by
journals?
• Or, do we look at reviews of the field, and get
a sense of the weight of work (splash, ripple
etc)
6. Environment and Planning A
REFEREE’S REPORT FOR AUTHOR(S)
• Referees are requested to comment on scientific and scholarly merit and presentation. The
primary consideration is that the paper should advance knowledge; it should be judged as a whole
from this point of view. Please consider the following points whilst preparing your review.
• - Is there enough original material in the paper (new results, theories) to warrant its
publication?
• - Are there any obvious faults in empirical basis, or theoretical reasoning?
• - Is the order of presentation logical (allowing reasonable latitude for individual preferences)?
• - Are there any parts which should be expanded or condensed, if so which?
• - Does the paper read well?
• - Are the title and abstract adequate?
• - Are the figures and tables satisfactory and correctly labelled? Are any of them redundant?
• - Are there any demonstrable errors in mathematics, calculations, units, etc?
7. Globalisation, Societies and Education (2003-)
“Manuscripts should be written clearly and
concisely, using arguments that are fully
substantiated with well-reasoned analysis
and, where appropriate, empirical evidence.
All acronyms for national agencies,
examinations, etc. should be spelled out the
first time they are mentioned.”
8. Evaluations of Quality - Effects
• Ripple – some citations
• Wave – caused others to alter their thinking
• Splash – major changes – affects other
domains/disciplines/fields not only the one
where it was presented
19. Identifying and Working with ‘Quality’
Critieria
RESEARCH EXCELLENCE FRAMEWORK - Nature of outputs
All types of outputs from research that meets the Frascati principles (involving original investigation
leading to new insights) will be eligible for submission. This includes ‘grey literature’ and outputs that are
not in conventional published form, such as confidential reports to government or business, software,
designs, performances and artefacts. Given that we see research as a process of investigation that has led
to new insights effectively shared, we would expect all submitted work to include evidence of the
research process, as well as presenting the insights in a form meeting the needs of its potential audience
both within and beyond the academic community.
Draft definitions of levels for the outputs sub-profile
• Four star Exceptional: Quality that is world-leading and meets the highest standards of
• excellence in terms of originality, significance and rigour
• Three star Excellent: Quality that is internationally excellent in terms of originality,
• significance and rigour but which nonetheless falls short of the highest
• standards of excellence
• Two star Very good: Quality that is recognised internationally in terms of originality,
• significance and rigour
• One star Good: Quality that is recognised nationally in terms of originality, significance
• and rigour
• Unclassified Quality that falls below the standard of nationally recognised work. Or work
• which does not meet the published definition of research for the purposes of
• the assessment
20. Unpacking criteria
• ‘World leading’ – emerging as the main
reference point in the debate (wave, rising star,
hot topic)
• ‘Originality’ – a new way of looking at some
event or problem (methodology, substantive,
geography, discipline)
• ‘Significance’ – how important is this for our
understandings in a particular setting or beyond
• ‘Rigour’ – the methodology (broad approach,
kind of data presented, tools used, reference to
appropriate literatures)

24. Feedback on Your Writing at Multiple Points of the
Process
1.‘Surface editing’ versus ‘deep reading’ – know when each
is the best for you?
2.Getting others to read – FOR……? Specify the task (an
expert; a person not in the field; use of statistics; as a native
user of the language; country expertise – and so on.
3.Writing an abstract to clarify the argument and perhaps
use this to discuss your argument.
4. Try and ‘listen’ to the feedback – and put aside feelings of
not being good enough….that this is a professional and not
a personal task.
5.If not clear what the reviewers want, ask the editors to
clarify.
28. Some Thoughts To Begin With …
Be open to a diverse range of opportunities to write and
communicate
Some forms of writing can be ‘stage posts’ for bigger
writing projects
Use a range of communication resources, including the
new media (podcasting, blogs, webpages)
Think about audience, their needs, your findings, liability
issues, evidence…
Think about how to make ideas travel (‘ripples’ versus
‘splashes’)
Don’t give all your pearls of wisdom away at once
Open source issues versus IP………
29. JOURNAL
S
Check journal requirements on
line..…think about… ‘discipline’,
‘audience’ (who) and mandate for the
journal; what is the dominant paradigm of
the journal (check journal editors); what are
the current ‘buzz topics’; how is issue
already covered in the journal; length
(could be a special debate piece or book
review); review clarity and style of own
argument; ensure you are up to date with
the literature especially if coming from work
that has been written some time ago;
accessible style of writing; rework thesis
work as style is usually different; be
conscious of colloquialisms and
assumptions (journals are international in
readership); referencing style….
30. Journal Writing
1. Title -(think of search engines)
2. Know the field and which journals are ranked where
3. Who reads it? (Board members )
4. Where is the journal located? US, UK, Europe, Asia??
5. Requirements/formatting?
6. Throughput? Impact? Distribution?
7. Length?
8. What has been written before in the journal (is this
new? Or a new angle on an issue that has been
pursued in the journal)
9. Have you published something like this elsewhere?
31. Journal Writing continued
10 Abstract - does it repeat the first paragraph?
11 Keywords? What are they?
12 Is there material that tells us about the methodology?
13 Who has read it before you have sent it in?
14 Should I contact the editors? And sent them
something before?
15 Are articles the only format? Can I do book reviews,
essays, point of views, debate pieces, interviews etc
16 How can I link to my other work?
17 Can I be different? Visual, narrative, etc
32. SPECIALIS
ED
NEWSPAPE
R
…think about… audience (who) ….what the ‘genre’ allows
you to do (700 words)…accessible style of writing, be
conscious of colloquialisms, issues of translation and length
when going from one language to another..visual possibilities
for the photographers…..how to maximise impact through
‘title’, ‘take’ and ‘relevance’…
35. Audience, length
of the piece, key
findings, kind of
evidence used,
methodology for
the study, who to
contact for
further
information
36. POLICY-
ORIENTED
PAPERS
…think about… audience (policymakers) and nature of your
own expertise…purpose of your advice…. nature of the
evidence mobilised and supporting references… accessible
style of writing (be conscious of colloquialisms and
ethnocentric assumptions)…structure of the communication…

audience, highlighting positives/infers negatives,
good practice, evidence footnoted

38. Is it edited or sole authored? Is it
pieces of work that you have
been writing which are knitted
together, or a coherently argued
