Blog writing is a fun and inspiring activity to facilitate the writing routine for young academics in the ethics and philosophy of technology. It can be used to write about one’s research topic, a paper one has in mind, or any other issue related to philosophy/ethics and technology. 4TU.Ethics Blog is a platform where such blogs can be peer-reviewed and published. Our aim is to target both academic and non-academic audiences to increase visibility and achieve a better public outreach.
Here are some guidelines for writing your blog:
-
- Your blog should contain a catchy title and a couple of lines explaining the relevance of your topic as you see it.
- You should be explicit about the core message of the blog early in the text.
- There is a word limit for your blog (1000 words max).
- You can write about i) your own research topic, ii) a paper you have in mind, or iii) any other issue related to philosophy/ethics and technology.
- References to academic scholarship are welcomed, but should be used moderately.
- You might want to use additional sources to better communicate your ideas, such as a:
- film
- song
- news article
- podcast
- painting
- photo
- artwork
- quote
- personal experience
- or anything else that can neatly exemplify and help to communicate your topic
- Please indicate which tag fits your blog the best:
- Opinion
- Inspirational
- Critical perspective
- Reflection
- Controversial ideas
- Check whether the process and the outcome meet the following criteria:
- Conciseness
- Joyfulness
- Relevance
