Writer's Block and Procrastination / 26-4-WB-3

Content

When the writing does not flow – which it probably will at some point during a doctorate – the terms »writer’s block« and »procrastination« quickly enter into the minds of many academics. However, it’s not obvious what these terms convey beyond the feeling that the writing does not go as one had hoped or expected. In this workshop, therefore, you will have the chance to analyze your writing process in detail: You will identify the things that do work for you, describe very carefully the challenges that you do face, and develop individual solutions for the writer’s block and/or the procrastination that keeps you from writing.

Further Information 

 

Doctoral programs calculate credit points based on the number of work units earned through workshop participation.
Each work unit represents 45 minutes of workshop time, and 8 work units equal 0.5 credit points.
For mini workshops (less than 8 work units), credits are calculated proportionally based on the work units.
Please note: To be eligible for credit transfer, you must accumulate enough work units from short workshops.
For example, attending two 3-hour workshops results in 8 work units (2 workshops x 4 work units each), which equals 0.5 credits.
