At ETEG our goal is to foster responsible research norms by creating a supportive and inclusive space, while at the same time maintaining high academic standards.
We also aim to be as transparent as possible. With this in mind, all abstracts will undergo peer review, with each submission receiving feedback, no matter whether it is accepted or rejected. The criteria on which submissions will be judged on are:
- Fittingness: the submission fits the theme of the workshop.
- Clarity: the submission articulates a clear thesis/aim/objective, and presents an easy-to-follow abstract that clearly conveys the structure of the proposed talk.
- Argumentation: the submission clearly and succinctly spells out the argument(s) that will be used to establish the overall conclusion/thesis of the talk.
- Originality: the submission strives to present a novel angle, perspective, interpretation, thesis or problem on a topic within the scope of the theme of the workshop.
