Using this template
A practical workflow, not just a blank page
Students and researchers comparing several sources against one research question or topic.
How to use it
- 1Name the topic and research question before reading deeply.
- 2Capture one source per row across method, findings, limitations, and themes.
- 3Use the synthesis area to compare patterns and disagreements across sources.
Why the page is arranged this way
A cross-source matrix exposes similarities and gaps that a single-paper summary cannot show.
Configure it deliberately
Set the topic, research question, page count, device, orientation, and binding side; use landscape when entries need more width.
What the sample contains
One source-comparison page with six analysis columns and synthesis lines.
