You Want Me to Do What? Analyzing & Synthesizing to Write a Literature Review
Virtual Workshops by Vernetta K. Mosley, PhD
Friday, September 26, 2025

Composing a comprehensive literature review can be like trying to put together a 1,000 piece puzzle by yourself in a short period of time! The daunting task of analyzing and synthesizing information from countless research sources overwhelms many graduate students as they prepare to write a dissertation or thesis. However, the literature review is necessary for many reasons before conducting a research study. In this session, participants will gain information and resources for writing a literature review so that the task is manageable and understandable.
Learning Objectives:- Distinguish between conducting a literature review and writing one
- Learn tools for organizing multiple research sources
