Transition Words
Using transitional words and phrases:
helps papers read smoothly
provides logical organization and
understandability
improves the connections and
transitions between thoughts
A coherent paper allows the reader to flow from the first supporting point to the last.
Transitions indicate relations, whether within a sentence, paragraph, or essay.
