Videos: How to Read Scholarly Articles
Simple Steps to Reading Scholarly ArticlesAre you dreading reading through those 8-20 page articles you found for your paper? Do they seem like they are written in a different language? Never fear! In this workshop, you will learn strategies for making sense of those long, and let’s face it, sometimes boring, articles. Funds for the creation of this workshop were provided by the Students First Fund, a grant program created by the Wright State University Foundation.
