Write it Down: Writing as a Step Toward Better Research
A Discussion with Computer Scientist Gang Wang
Summary
Listen to this interview of Gang Wang, Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. We talk about using writing to research better.
Gang Wang : "I personally view writing as a very useful process to polish my own thinking. For example, when my group are on a project, until we actually put things in writing, we won't find little flaws in the design, or jumped steps in the argumentation, or missing experiments in the study. But when we put things in writing, this shows us very quickly what we've left out."
