CGC Bibliography on Graduate Communication (Zotero)
The CGC Bibliography on Graduate Communication lists hundreds of scholarly sources on pedagogy and course design; international graduate students and multilingual writers; written, oral, and visual communication; supervisor/advisor practices; the graduate student experience; textbooks and self-study; thesis and dissertation writing; writing tutoring and fellows programs; and graduate communication in disciplines including STEM, medicine & healthcare, education, and the social sciences.
The bibliography resides on Zotero, a free citation manager that allows for easy navigation and tagging. From 2018 to 2020, a task force led by Talinn Phillips compiled, categorized, and annotated the bibliography, and in early 2020, Lindsey Ives, with help from Kayla Taylor entered them in Zotero.
