It focuses on the many elements that embody a zine, from the layout and design to the addition of artwork, publication details, and—of course—the content itself. In regards to the content, this chapter explores the diverse culture of zinesters, illustrating the wide variety of content and, even more, how that content often draws from multiple disciplines to achieve its purpose. By noting both real-life zine examples and assignments, this chapter melds the worlds of multidisciplinary writing and zines, introducing both to the readers.","PeriodicalId":269999,"journal":{"name":"Strategies and Tactics for Multidisciplinary Writing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130682208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Submitting an essay for a college grade that is free from errors and well organized can change a B paper into an A paper. Effectively proofreading, editing, and revising will assist a writer in turning a “good” paper into an “excellent” one. In addition, it can raise the credibility of the author and maintain his or her professionalism in his or her career. This chapter discusses the revising, editing, and proofreading processes and includes checklists to guide a writer in accomplishing his or her writing goals.","PeriodicalId":269999,"journal":{"name":"Strategies and Tactics for Multidisciplinary Writing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131995628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Any report of research misconduct creates a clear and present danger to the research field, academic institutions, and their faculty, residents, students, and staff. We can see the rise in research misconduct, most simply through the rising number of article retractions. Throughout this chapter, the authors go into the various methods with which researchers overtly fabricate, falsify, and plagiarize their research and the more covert methods of research misconduct, including reshaping data, withholding unfavorable analyses, and other situations that toe the line.","PeriodicalId":269999,"journal":{"name":"Strategies and Tactics for Multidisciplinary Writing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122723328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
