revedres-writing-style

Use when drafting or revising prose, the 150-word abstract, and the introduction in the Review of Educational Research (RER) synthesizing voice and APA 7 style. Lands the integrative voice; it does not build the analytic spine (revedres-organizing-framework) or design exhibits (revedres-tables-figures).

# Writing Style (revedres-writing-style) ## When to trigger - The framework and exhibits are settled and the prose needs to match the RER bar - A draft summarizes study-by-study instead of synthesizing across studies - The abstract is over 150 words or reads like a primary-research abstract - The introduction buries the contribution or over-signposts ## The RER voice: synthesize, do not summarize, for a broad education audience RER is read **across education and adjacent disciplines**, not by one method club. The voice is **comprehensive, critical, and integrative**: authoritative about the field, fair to every camp, and accessible to a reader who does not already know this literature. The single most-punished move is **prose that walks through one study per paragraph** — "Smith (2019) found… Jones (2020) found…" — which is summary, not synthesis. Instead, organize paragraphs around **claims, constructs, and tensions**, citing clusters of studies as evidence for each. ## The introduction arc The opening should, in order: 1. **Frame the field and the problem** — what is at stake for learning, instruction, policy, or equity (in plain terms, for a broad reader). 2. **Establish the nee

About this skill
What does the revedres-writing-style skill do?

Use when drafting or revising prose, the 150-word abstract, and the introduction in the Review of Educational Research (RER) synthesizing voice and APA 7 style. Lands the integrative voice; it does not build the analytic spine (revedres-organizing-framework) or design exhibits (revedres-tables-figures).

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill revedres-writing-style --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
