9 Part 8: Learn How to Write SCI Journal Papers of the Research Type
A research paper is not that easy to generate and definitely not in one semester.
Consequently, only a precise template for writing research papers is elaborated down to
details, and students are asked to bring their previously concluded research rewritten
according to the template just described. Students without previous research experience
are given an opportunity, in a follow-up research-oriented course, to do a research
project and to write a research paper from scratch.
In the course described here, one can only teach theoretical issues (see Refs. [9,10]), and
one can encourage students, for extra homework credit, to write a research paper about
their research conducted before the course started, using the formalism taught, step by
step. Therefore, homework #8 is optional, for extra classroom credit.
