In this Webinar with Jones & Bartlett Learning author Kathryn H. Jacobsen, you'll learn strategies for academic writing—from getting started to staying motivated and seeing the project through to completion. Based on the workshops Dr. Jacobsen has led with public health and nursing faculty and students, the tips presented in this webinar are perfect for those across all the health disciplines. Many of these strategies are also covered in the new chapter 35 of the second edition of Dr. Jacobsen's book, Introduction to Health Research Methods (published in August).
