Il workshop si svolgerà durante la settimana di orientamento iniziale (Induction Week) di settembre. Introdurrà gli studenti al settore della salute e della cura della pelle, alle principali aree di investimento delle aziende e alle competenze trasversali (*soft skills*). La valutazione del workshop si baserà sulla partecipazione a un progetto incentrato sulla comunicazione scientifica.

Utilizzerò delle slide che non verranno messe a disposizione; pertanto, è vivamente consigliato prendere appunti.

The aim is to write valuable scientific articles that the general public can easily read and understand.

This course is a writing laboratory where students will immediately apply what they are learning.

I shall evaluate how the article is written, if it is suitable and understandable for a public (therefore strong jargon shall be avoided as much as possible), if complies withes the Seo rules, if it is delivered on time as well as if it is paired with the proper photos. The scientific mentor shall evaluate the scientific content considering its originality, the strong basis on which the assumptions are made, the reliability of the sources and the observations made by the students. The final mark will be expressed in 30/30 with the possibility of the laude if the product is consistent, wide and curated in all details.

In the first part I will explain how to write an article for the online student magazine aimed at a general public. The goal is to produce at least one product per student to be published on https://www.emotion-master.eu/emotion-student-magazine/ The product shall be an article with photos and other possible elements such as video, audio, infographics. We dive into how to choose a topic of interest, how to choose a title and how to deliver the message. Then we will focus on the SEO writing for a better positioning of the article.

The student shall write at least a scientific article with photos. Photos can be taken personally, produced with AI or taken from website with free common license.
