Common Writing Challenges Academics Face

Academics need to navigate multiple hurdles in their writing journey. Let’s take a quick look at the most common writing challenges that can impede progress and productivity.  

• Writer’s block: Staring at a blank page can be intimidating and frustrating. Authors often don’t know how to start writing or are unsure of the best way to build their ideas from one sentence to the next.
• Ensuring clarity and cohesiveness: Academic writing needs to be clear, precise, and well-organized. Achieving this can be difficult, especially when dealing with research topics and extensive data.
• Language barriers: For non-native speakers, expressing complex ideas in a second language can be particularly challenging, impacting the quality and clarity of their work. A PLOS survey shows that compared to native English speakers, those with moderate English proficiency take as much as 51% more time to write in English.
• Maintaining focus: Academic writing demands prolonged concentration. Interruptions and distractions can disrupt the flow of thoughts, making it difficult to stay on track with your writing goals.
• Expressing thoughts into innovative ideas: When it comes to academic writing, authors need to think holistically and develop counterarguments or diverse perspectives to support their claims. Finding this takes time and a lot of research reading.

Paperpal’s Solution: Predictive Text Suggestions

Paperpal is tailored specifically for academic text and its latest feature Write offers authors instant AI-based writing support to address these challenges head-on. With this new upgrade, the AI writing assistant can further deepen the support it provides authors on the academic writing journey. Under Write, authors have two options: 

• Keep writing – The AI writer suggests what your next sentence could be, helping you expand on your ideas and maintain your writing flow.

How Paperpal Write Works: Step-by-Step Process

Powered by cutting-edge AI and human intelligence, Paperpal Write is an invaluable for students, early career researchers, and non-native speakers. Here’s how to use this simple, intuitive feature: 

1. Login or sign-up on Paperpal, open a document and start writing. You will need at least one line of 10+ words to allow the AI writing tool to understand and suggest the next sentence.

2. Navigate to Write on the right sidebar, place your cursor at the point from where you want to continue writing (after the period) and click ‘Keep Writing’. The AI writer will generate three options for the next sentence based on your text.

3. Review the suggested sentences, choose the best fit for your work, and insert it within your document with one click. You can also customize instructions to get tailored text suggestions, or pick from in-built prompts to generate counterarguments, analogies, examples, or expand on your text.

Paperpal Supports Responsible Writing

Paperpal stands for ethical AI usage in academic writing and encourages monitoring and review of all AI-generated text before incorporating it into your own work. As you use generative AI features under Write to transform ideas into words, remember to use the AI-generated text as a base to build your ideas quickly and keep up your writing flow. Paperpal’s AI writer generates only one sentence at a time, ensuring the author remains in full control of the content with a chance to review and refine, verify facts and add citations as needed to achieve high-quality content that is original and authentic. By allowing author control, Paperpal ensures the final output remains true to your own voice.
