How to Synthetize Literature Reviews

This workshop is part of a mutual collaboration between CGLL and NC State

Facilitator: Katie Homar

You’ve gathered lots of articles and other sources. What next? In this workshop, we address tips for effectively structuring and synthesizing sources (“literature”) in journal articles and research papers.

Participants will specifically practice strategies for:

• Summarizing sources and organizing summaries
• Integrating sources into their article of research paper using common “lit review” structures
• Paraphrasing sources
• Using appropriate reporting verbs and transitions to synthesize sources
• Starting/revising their own selective “lit review” section for an article or research paper
