Workshop: How to Read an Academic Article

Academic articles can feel dense and time-consuming to read. This workshop shows you how to read them faster and smarter. You’ll learn a simple method for “mapping” an article (what it’s asking, how it answers the question, and why it matters), and you’ll see how different fields structure research differently. Bring one article from your discipline and try the strategy in real time—the perfect prep for stronger source use and later annotated bibliography writing.
