Graduate Writing Workshop | Tackling the Lit (literature) Review
Thursday, November 12, 11 a.m.–1 p.m., online
This practical workshop is aimed at graduate students who are new to literature reviews or are looking to strengthen their approach. We’ll explore how to move beyond summarizing individual sources to identify key conversations, themes, connections, and gaps within existing scholarship. Participants will work through strategies for finding and organizing relevant research, synthesizing sources, and developing a literature review that establishes the scholarly context for their own research.
