Tips for Writing Literature Reviews Part 2

Tips for Writing Literature Reviews Part 2 Online

Join us for the second part of this series on writing literature reviews to learn some tips and tricks for synthesizing information in a literature review or in the inroduction or discussion sections of a research article. We will cover different ways of synthesizing information, achieving the appropriate balance of summarization and synthesis, sentence structures for synthesis, and AI tools for faciltating parts of the lit review process. We will use examples from STEM but the tips can be applied to literature revivews in any discipline. 

You can register for the first part of this series focused on finding literature for your review and reading papers here, but you do not need to have attended Part 1 of the series to join this session.
