00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Mandow, Anthony author Martínez, Jorge L. author García-Cerezo, Alfonso José author 2014-10-27 This paper addresses education on scientific publication skills for post-graduate engineering students. In particular, a project-based learning strategy is proposed to lead students through the preparation a research paper. Expected learning outcomes are related to finding and evaluating the quality of references, editing and formatting text in \LaTeX, writing scientific papers with appropriate style and structure, peer reviewing, and making technical presentations. This approach has been developed to increase the internationalization and visibility of young researchers by improving the quality standards of their published works. The purpose of this innovative practice is that students confront the major challenges of the publication process in the classroom, which is in contrast with the traditional self-taught approach experienced by the authors and many senior researchers. The proposed strategy is being applied as a required course in the Master in Mechatronics Engineering of the University of Malaga. This paper offers preliminary results from this experience. http://hdl.handle.net/10630/8314 http://orcid.org/0000-0002-9994-6239 Ingeniería - Estudio y enseñanza Ingeniería - Investigación científica Project-Based Learning of Scientific Writing and Communication Skills for Postgraduate Students
