Introduction to Literature Reviews (Part 1)

Literature reviews can be one of the most challenging parts of the research process. This workshop will help orient novice researchers to the basic concepts of planning and organizing a literature review, and is intended for seniors and graduate students. Active participation is strongly encouraged, so come prepared to engage in some fun interactive exercises. For more experienced student researchers, Part 2 of this workshop series is recommended.
