Sourcework - Academic Writing from Sources

Sourcework helps students work from outside sources and guides them through the challenging terrain of their first academic research papers. Students master all the skills necessary to support their own ideas: note-taking from readings, analyzing information, outlining structures, creating thesis statements, authoring introductions and conclusions, and writing and refining drafts. At each stage, students learn how to document evidence, integrate references, paraphrase, synthesize, and summarize.
