DESCRIPTION:For your paper to be successful\, people have to actually read 
 it. A compelling abstract is essential for capturing readers' attention an
 d making them want to read more. But writing an effective abstract is chal
 lenging because you need to summarize what motivated you\, what you did\, 
 and what you found\, in a small number of words. In this workshop\, Thalia
  Rubio\, a WCC Communication Instructor\, a technical writer\, and a textb
 ook author\, will analyze sample abstracts\, discuss editing strategies\, 
 and guide you through revising abstracts. You'll also have the opportunity
  to begin developing your own abstract and will leave with a better unders
 tanding of how to write a strong abstract that clearly presents your resea
 rch.
