| description | This study investigated the writing parameters of a research paper by
multiple authors who formed a research team in a public university in
Malaysia. Drafts of the research paper were produced through the research
activities and writings of the participant researchers. By observations,
interviews, and textual analysis of drafts, we studied the three main
parameters that each written text naturally contains: who wrote the text,
what the text was, and to whom the text was written. Participants in the
present study comprised a team of researchers from different disciplines.
They conducted a project in science, wrote, and published their findings in
an on-line journal. The findings indicate that the authentic task of writing
a multi-authored research paper by a team of experienced researchers is
beyond and more complicated than fulfilling a basic task of writing in the
context of a class by a novice student. The experiences through which the
participant researchers of this study produced the drafts of the article are
greatly valuable for the academics who are planning to publish their findings
in the form of an article. This study has implications for teaching of writing
academic texts, particularly writing of research papers. |
