Calling All Journalists: The Deep Web Beckons by Madeline Morris

Calling All Journalists: The Deep Web Beckons by Madeline Morris
http://maddiemo.com/calling-journalists-deep-web-beckons/

Being a trusted journalist in the 21st century is near impossible. Even if the AP Stylebook is your bible and the SPJ Code of Ethics your 10 Commandments, journalists are still fighting a losing battle. Unless, that is, serious measures are taken to change technology, which is what Edward Snowden hoped would come of his revelations. We can do this by capitalizing on the Deep Web, but first, we must be educated on the Deep Web. After all, you can’t win at something you’ve never been taught.

Academic Phrasebank

March 25, 2014

Academic Phrasebank
http://www.phrasebank.manchester.ac.uk/

The Academic Phrasebank is a general resource for academic writers. It aims to provide you with examples of some of the phraseological “nuts and bolts” of writing organised according to the main sections of a research paper or dissertation (see the top menu on the left). Other phrases are listed under the more general communicative functions of academic writing (see the bottom menu on the left). The resource was designed primarily for academic and scientific writers who are non-native speakers of English. However, native speaker writers may still find much of the material helpful. In fact, recent data suggests that the majority of users are native speakers of English. The phrases, and the headings under which they are listed, can be used simply to assist you in thinking about the content and organisation of your own writing, or the phrases can be incorporated into your writing where this is appropriate. In most cases, a certain amount of creativity and adaptation will be necessary when a phrase is used. The Academic Phrasebank is not discipline specific. Nevertheless, it should be particularly useful for writers who need to report their empirical studies. The phrases are content neutral and generic in nature; in using them, therefore, you are not stealing other people’s ideas and this does not constitute plagiarism.

Writefull – A New Way of Writing With Confidence

Writefull – A New Way of Writing With Confidence
http://writefullapp.com/

We all use Google to check if our writing is correct. We enter different phrases until we find the one that gives us most results – and this is the one we use in our own text. A smart approach, but not without its annoyances: revisiting the Google webpage breaks the flow of our writing, and its results often contain grammatical errors. What if you could use this Google-approach, but within your own writing tool, with better results, and with writing-tailored search options?  This is exactly what Writefull does! Writefull is a light-weight app that uses data from Google Books (5+ million books) and the Web to give you language support. All you need to do is select a chunk from your text, activate the Writefull popover, and choose one of its options including a) Check the number of results; b) Compare the number of results; c) See examples in context; d) Find words in context; and e) Find synonyms in context. This has been added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog. This will be added to Journalism Resources Subject Tracer™.
