A "Quick Tip from the UGL" video:
Scholarly articles can be dense and difficult to read. This short video explains steps that undergraduate students can take to better understanding scholarly writing.
How to read a scholarly article:
1. Read the abstract.
2. Read the conclusion.
3. Read the first paragraph or the introduction.
4. Read the first sentence of every paragraph.
5. Read the rest of the article.
