This course seeks to provide support to the academics of the university, in the process involved in publishing on teaching in higher education.

After the great participation and interest of the university's academics in its first version, the Vice-Rector's Office for Research and Postgraduate Studies of the University of La Serena began the second version of the academic writing course, which seeks to support to the institution's teachers in the process that academic publication entails, whether in a relevant educational experience or research on teaching.

As in its first version, this course is aimed at academics who are beginning to prepare academic publications, with a topic focused on teaching in higher education.

“This second version of the academic writing course is being given following the acceptance of its first version. This is a course that seeks to strengthen research in teaching within the University, providing the tools so that academics are able to write and publish the work they do within the university," indicated the Vice-Rector for Research and Postgraduate Studies, Dr. Eduardo Notte, regarding the beginning of this course.

One of its participants, the academic from the Department of Industrial Engineering, David Gómez, expressed that these “are important instances for teachers who work on research topics and it is always good to be learning. I think it is excellent that the University is concerned about creating this type of spaces that contribute to the development of research.”

The course is taught by Dr. Haylen Perines, from the ULS Multidisciplinary Research Institute in Science and Technology, and consists of 4 sessions, with a total of 14 hours of work.
