Literature Reviews and Synthesis Matrices

, 520

Friday, November 9, 12:00-1:30pm, 520 in the Sciences Library
This fall, the Writing Center has launched a new Dissertation  
Workshop Series for graduate students.  The next workshop in the series,  
led by Dr. Stacy Kastner, the Associate Director of the Writing Center and  
Writing Support Programs, will focus on literature reviews, specifically on  
unpacking the rhetorical and epistemological dimensions of the literature  
review as a method of scholarly socialization for graduate students.  
Participants will leave the workshop with an understanding of how to be  
strategic about selecting sources for their literature reviews and with a  
draft of a literature review matrix to support their “synthesis of the  
scholarly conversation.” Registration is required. Please register here. Lunch provided.
