"In this article we summarize and discuss the literature on teaching scientific
writing. Although we focus mainly on articles in peer-reviewed journals, we
also draw on material in professionally oriented magazines and newsletters
and in books. First we describe methods used for the literature review, including
databases searched, keywords used, and languages and dates included.
Then we present information on the history of teaching scientific writing and
on instructional designs reported, including single sessions, intensive short
courses, and semester-long courses; examples of instruction at specific institutions
and under other auspices are noted. Also addressed are the teaching of
English-language scientific writing to non-native users of English, the use of
distance instruction in teaching scientific writing, issues in scientific-writing
instruction, and current trends in the field. Finally, we identify topics on which
further research appears advisable. Supplementary materials include annotated
lists of textbooks and websites useful in teaching scientific writing."
