In this one-hour session, we will explore how scholars guide their readers through complex arguments using transitions. Through analyzing published research articles across disciplines, the facilitator will introduce common expressions that academic writers use to build relationships between ideas (e.g., contrast, cause-effect, elaboration) in order to tell a coherent research story.
