Assignment: Popular Blog Post

In this assignment you will be writing a blog post summarizing one of the papers in the visualization field. The blog post should be around 600800 words in length. You will be signing up for a research paper to present during class. Presentation instruction will be given separately in due time. In other words, you cannot choose which paper to summarize yourself, but you will need to choose from a few available ones. If you achieve a desirable quality, your blog article will be posted on the LnuVIS publication on Medium.

Grading

I will be grading the blog posts on the following basis: Ability to convey complex scientific information in a simple and straightforward manner; Appropriate length (between 600 and 800 words); The effective use of one or two images to illustrate the work; and

 Effective and high-quality language.

Format and Content

Here are some general guidelines for how to write these blog articles: Length : The sweet spot is approximately 800 words (approximately 4 minutes to read), but slightly longer or shorter is acceptable. Content : Remember to write for a popular audience. This means writing for impact, giving lots of examples, eliminating jargon, acronyms, and technical terms, and skipping methodology and literature surveys. Comprehension: Read the paper you are summarizing at least twice to make sure you understand everything. Pitch, Twist, and Hook : Come up with a clear, conscious, and compelling approach to telling your story. Writers often talk about the hook; the special part of the story that pulls your reader into reading the rest of the article by virtue of being unexpected, unique, or mind-boggling.

Title: Come up with a short, simple, and catchy title. Dont endeavor for the typical long, clumsy, and academic titles you find in scientific papers. Summary : Include a short summary paragraph of the gist of the article; ideally one or two sentences that summarize the takeaways. Inverted pyramid : Journalists tend to write stories using the so-called Inverted Pyramid format, where the facts are given in decreasing order of importance (i.e. with the most important things first). Sentences : Write short, strong, and easy-to-read sentences, ideally with an active voice (i.e., sentences have the form subject + verb + object). Grammarly will help flag unwieldy and academic writing. Voice : On that note, avoid passive voice if at all possible. Its even more important here than for a scientific article! Parentheses : Parentheses tend to break the flow in running prose. While this is fine in a scientific article, try to avoid using them in a popular article. One or two sets are generally fine, but too many and the narrative becomes hard to read.

 Images : Include at least one image. Be sure to write a
descriptive caption (including punctuation); often, you
should write multiple sentences to describe the image.
There is no premium on text in captions! Also, dont
bother numbering images, but embed where you
discuss them.
 References : You dont need references in the blog
post. Keep them in the linked paper and dont add it to
your post. If you need to motivate something, do it in
words yourself and dont rely on the literature. In the
worst case, you can provide URLs, but dont link to
academic paper PDFs.
 Paper information : Be sure to include the full
citation at the end of the paper. If the paper includes a
video or other supplementary material, include it as
well! Videos are particularly good to embed.
 Spelling and grammar:  It matters! Check carefully
and, ideally, have someone else read your post to find
issues you missed yourself.

Using Images and Media

Feel free to use any images and media you find in your blog post. If you are writing about work that is not yours, consider reaching out to the authors. Almost any researcher is going to welcome the external exposure your blog post will bring. In fact, most people will be flattered that you are writing about them! Sometimes they may even have additional material that you could not find on a public resource. If you need basic stock photography to illustrate a point, or to just add something visual to your otherwise boring blog post, take a look at Unsplash or Pexels. All of the photographs there are high quality and free for use (even in commercial settings). Just be careful that stock photos have a certain feel, and using too many of them may give your post a generic appearance.
