The Writing and Presenting Process: Beginning the Work

CARC Podcast Banner

This webinar gives students the basic skills to begin a first draft, including writing a précis, finding a model for your paper, gathering and organizing evidence, and shaping a good thesis question.

We include guidance for how to approach writing a précis, finding a model for your paper, gathering and organizing evidence, and shaping a good thesis question.

These valuable writing skills can be used to begin any piece of source-based nonfiction, whether in the realm of business, science, social sciences, or humanities.

Presented by Dr. Elisabeth Sharp McKetta and former broadcast journalist and current scholar Margaret-Ann Simonetta.
