Editing university papers and dissertations

1/28/2019

I love the deep, probing, evidence-based thinking that goes into academic papers and so this is one of the areas of editing that reaps a lot of rewards for me as an editor. When it comes to editing university papers - one of the main tools for assessing student performance - careful attention must be paid to the limits of what an editor can do to improve a student's work. Editors Canada recently published ethical guidelines for editing student papers. These guidelines are essential to take on board before an editor and student begin to work together. Here are the links:
