Even though we all know that positioning our work in the context of pre-existing research is important, it can also be overwhelming. In this workshop, we will discuss how to make sure that we understand and correctly represent the research that we read. We will discuss how to think about our research as filling a gap and look at some useful words and phrases. We will also share our experience of organising information. One activity in this workshop will ask you to make and discuss a mind map of your reading so far.
