Transition Days (Sept 10 & 12)

Tuesday Sept 10

Reflections on Inference Module

Discuss TREE style review paper purpose and structure

Please browse TREE Paper Examples

You need not read them closely for full comprehension but rather browse and focus on language and organization.

Consider these questions in particular:

What is the purpose of each review? How do the authors articulate and frame that purpose?

How is each one structured?

How do they define the scope in each case?

Which synthesizes the most information?

Which do you see as most useful in terms of a review?
