Science and Technical Writing

STW is a class that works in conjunction with STEM. In this class, students focus on scientific writing, learning how to analyze a scientific paper as well as write one. Topics of this class include grammar, learning how to write formal emails, formatting, statistics, and more.

The project notes file is a pdf of the documentation of sources that students have collected overtime. Whenever a student reads a paper or other source regarding their project, they are to fill out a template on that source.

The literature review is a collection of sources that have been read in regards to the project, as the name suggests. A great deal of the scientific literature in this paper comes from the project notes as well. Throughout the writing of the literature review, there were multiple checkpoints and peer reviews.
