ESA Professional Development Calendar

The scientific process mirrors classic story structure, starting with a peaceful state (background knowledge), encountering a problem (call to adventure), addressing it through methods and results (the hero’s task), and concluding with changed circumstances (conclusions). This strong parallel suggests using story structure for writing effective abstracts. Abstracts following this pattern are clear and easy to understand. The workshop explores this parallel through interactive exercises, analyzing examples to highlight the effectiveness of structured abstracts. Attendees will leave better equipped to craft clear and impactful abstracts that convey the significance of their work.
