How to write a literature review (post grad level)

English
1 answer:
Goryan [66]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step 1: Choose a topic to write about—focus on and explore this topic.

Choose a topic that you are familiar with and highly interested in analyzing; a topic your intended readers and researchers will find interesting and useful; and a topic that is current, well-established in the field, and about which there has been sufficient research conducted for a review. This will help you find the “sweet spot” for what to focus on.

Step 2: Research and collect all of the scholarly information on the topic that might be pertinent to your study.

This includes scholarly articles, books, conventions, conferences, dissertations and theses—these and any other academic work related to your area of study is called “the literature.”

Step 3: Analyze the network of information that extends or responds to the major works in your area; select the material that is most useful. Use thought maps and charts to identify intersections in the research and to outline important categories; select the material that will be most useful to you review.

Step 4: Describe and summarize each article—provide the essential information of the article that pertains to your study.

Determine 2-3 important concepts (depending on the length of your article) that are discussed in the literature; take notes about all of the important aspects of this study relevant to your topic being reviewed.

Step 5: Demonstrate how these concepts in the literature relate to what you discovered in your study or how the literature connects the concepts or topics being discussed.  

Discuss unaddressed issues in previous studies. These studies that are missing something you address are important to include in your literature review. In addition, those works whose theories and conclusions directly support your findings will be valuable to review here.

Step 6: Identify relationships in the literature and develop and connect your own ideas to them—this is essentially the same as step 5, but focused on the connections between the literature and the current study or guiding concepts or arguments of the paper, not only on the connections between the works themselves.

Put parentheses around the adverb clause by placing the parentheses in their correct locations. Although I wrote in time, I did
Effectus [21]

Answer:

<u>(Although I wrote in time)</u>, I did not receive a ticket.

Explanation:

An adverb clause is a group of related words having a subject and a verb and whose function is to modify or give further information of adjectives, verbs or other adverbs. This type of clauses often answers why, how, when, where or in what circumstances something is done or takes place, and they begin with subordinating conjunctions that introduce the clause and connects it to another clause, such as <em>although, because, since, as, after, when, before an once. </em>

In the sentence, the adverb clause is "Although I wrote in time" because it has a subject and a verb ("I" and "wrote"), it modifies the main action (the verb): "receive" by providing information of in what circumstances you did not receive the ticket, and it is introduced by a subordinating conjunction: "although."

What is one reason to use a subplot in a novel?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

To contradict the message conveyed by the main plot

A subplot can focus on another aspect of the protagonist, or it can follow the story of another main character and his or her development. It can drive home theme and it can aid in world-building. Subplots will enrich your novel and make your story a more compelling read.
