What is Scholarly Research?
Scholarly articles are ones that publish a researcher’s original work. It will tell you: what, why, and how the researcher did the work; the results of the work; highlight some key data (often in figures, tables, or charts); and provide a discussion of the results and conclusions about the work.
Scholarly articles are written by authors who have credentials and experience with the subject to alert other experts to what they found. Typically, the language used is the language of the field and may have the technical terms and jargon common to that field.
