WriteCast Episode 19: The Literature Review: Tackling the Hard Questions

In our latest episode, Beth and Amy K. chat about literature review (in)FAQs. You won't hear about synthesis or MEAL plan paragraphs here! Instead, we wanted to tackle some of the harder questions students ask, such as
  • When can you stop researching and start writing?
  • When do you know you're finished?
  • How long should the lit review be?

  2. Hi Bill. Thanks for asking about the other sections of the Capstone project. I think it's best if I share this resource with you and let you find the answer that best fits your own program of study: http://academicguides.waldenu.edu/writingcenter/capstone

    If you can't find the questions you're looking for here, you can always email editor@waldenu.edu to ask your specific questions to one of our professional Editors.

    Good luck on your project, and keep checking the Writing Center Blog for lots more info for Capstone writers.
