This book is focused on the writing of literature reviews, a difficult genre to master and one that is typically not addressed at the undergraduate or graduate levels. The content for the book is driven through exercises and activities that facilitate the writing progress. Grounded in English (composition, rhetoric, and writing studies), engineering education, and technical communication research, this book teaches writing from a genre theory lens. This lens allows writers to focus on how the purpose of sentences or paragraphs interacts with the other content and with the disciplinary expectations for writing for specific audiences. The text is organized so that readers can customize their learning pace. The authors outline how readers can write an effective LR as part of a 2-day workshop or within a 2-, 8-, or 16-week period. This scalable model makes the text ideal for independent learning or as part of a graduate writing workshop. | So You Have To Write A Literature Review by Catherine Berdanier, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
