Managing Flow

Workshop taught by Dr. Rachael Cayley

Managing flow in academic writing requires that we grasp the connections among our own ideas and that we provide readers with what they need to make sense of those connections. Because of the complexity of this task, many graduate writers find themselves relying on transition words instead of building flow into their writing. In this workshop, we will look at how to avoid this overuse of transition words before going on to discuss strategies for constructing cohesive sentences.
