Developing Perfect Paragraphs for Literature Reviews | Ep. 20
Description
Do you ever stare at a half-written literature review paragraph and think, “Where the heck am I going with all of this?” Do you ever worry that your paragraphs are either too convoluted or just an endless stream of summaries?
Hey co-authors! In this episode, we dig into how to write crisp, compelling paragraphs in your literature review. We’ll unpack the common traps and then walk through a clear, three-step approach for crafting paragraphs with purpose. You can also access an annotated example through this Google Drive link or at the bottom of this description. In this episode, you’ll learn how to:
- Start each paragraph with a strong analytical claim, not a description.
- Synthesize studies using patterns, agreements, and contradictions—not one-study summaries.
- Add reasoning and transitions that highlight consequences, contradictions, or gaps.
- Check your work with quick diagnostics.
- Follo
Tune in to learn how to write paragraphs that argue, connect, and build momentum—one clear, intentional claim at a time.
