We know students can’t always attend a live webinar, so we record all of our webinars and archive them in our webinar archive for viewing at your convenience. You’ll also find the slides and transcripts for each webinar there as well.

Writing Effective Academic Paragraphs

Paragraphs are the building blocks of an academic essay, and the strength of your writing and argument depend on developing effective paragraphs.

You will leave this webinar with a better understanding of the components of an effective paragraph, as well as tips for creating cohesion between and within paragraphs.
