“Impulse” publishes its experience of delivering a course on research paper writing and editing

Today, the development of artificial intelligence cannot be ignored, and it is necessary to learn how to think critically about it when creating a text in English. Incorrect use of machine translation, difficulties in understanding explanations in English, and common mistakes became the three pillars of the course “Preparing a research paper: Machine translation and further editing.” The course was designed and held in October-November 2023.
