Here is the handout :)

Am I right in thinking that critical writing has to be persuasive?

How this relate to Anderson knowledge types

can we go through the difference between critical and persuasive ?

If there are more than one views/claims (but not include our own view), can this be critical writing?

Thanks

person-centred

Significant coefficient

medicine. patient-empowerment

engagement and motivation in the field of education; interaction (between teacher and student) as opposed to interaction between technology and technology-user

evidence-based practice - discipline clinical psychology

Uraban: Wakable, Livable

engineering: fluid. medicine: fluid

Where can I find the value laden language from another discipline that I am working in interdisciplinary? Ask supervisors? Readings?

Thanks

Economics: Labour, outcome, model

If a writing is using a first person voice, do we need to use the modality in conjuction with “I think/we think”?

I understand modality as a continuum from low too high. The use of tentative language is somewhere in the middle.

Will it be ok to say that in our persuasive comments we point out the gaps with proof and in critical part we justify how we have filled those gaps? Even if partially.

That is an interesting point about humility within the discipline. Can that not also be a sort of self censoring? And at what point in one’s career can you start shifting and making more authoritative claims without trying to be persuasive?

an example: ‘therefore our review suggest that … is important’

So are you saying that it's better to do the latter (move the risky part away from the verb?)

Makes sense. Thanks.

It really depends on your purpose as well I guess. I published something quite 'controversial' recently, just because I wanted to push the boundaries and see if I could poke the bear a bit and get a response.

Autoethnography perhaps?
