Production of Images and Language Notation is the first INSCRIBE Workshop. It will be a four-session event, spread across four consecutive days (12 - 15 January 2021) on Zoom. The Workshop will be open to everyone who is interested, free of charge.

To access the Workshop, you will need to REGISTER HERE.

Registering once will enable you to access any of the 4 sessions.

Session 1 - 12 January 2021 - Is Iconography a Springboard for Writing?
Session 2 - 13 January 2021 - The Dawn of Writing
Session 3 - 14 January 2021 - More Recent Inventions
Session 4 - 15 January 2021 - Iconic vs non-Iconic Signs

Steps to organizing your manunoscript
Prepare the figures and tables:

1- Write the Methods.
2- Write up the Results.
3- Write the Discussion. 4- Finalize the Results and Discussion before writing the introduction. This is because, if the discussion is insufficient, how can you objectively demonstrate the scientific significance of your work in the introduction?
5- Write a clear Conclusion.
6- Write a compelling introduction.
7- Write the Abstract.
8- Compose a concise and denoscriptive Title.
9- Select Keywords for indexing.
10- Write the Acknowledgements.
11- Write up the References.
