    REVIEW TOPIC
    researchers in your field.
    Talk to your professor,
    brainstorm, and read lecture notes
    and recent issues of periodicals in
    the field.
    Define your source selection criteria (ie. articles published between a
    specific date range, focusing on a specific geographic region, or using a
    specific methodology).

    Using keywords, search a library database.


    Reference lists of recent articles and reviews can lead to other useful papers.
    Include any studies contrary to your point of view.

    SEARCHING AND
    SELECTING
    APPROPRIATE
    ARTICLES
    Evaluate and synthesize the studies' findings
    and conclusions.

    subtopics. Note the following:
    • Findings that are common/contested
    • Important trends in the research
    • The most influential theories
    • Tip: If your literature review is extensive, find a large table surface, and on it
    place post-it notes or filing cards to organize all your findings into categories.
    • Move them around if you decide that (a) they fit better under different
    headings, or (b) you need to establish new topic headings.

    ORGANIZATION OF WRITING THE REVIEW
    THREE TYPES OF LITERATURE
    REVIEW ORGANIZATION
    REVIEW YOUR WORK

    • Look at the topic sentences of each paragraph.


    • Make an outline of each section of the paper and decide whether you need to add information, to delete irrelevant information, or
    to re-structure sections.
    • Read your work out loud. That way you will be better able to identify where you need punctuation marks to signal pauses or
    divisions within sentences, where you have made grammatical errors, or where your sentences are unclear.
    • Make certain that all of the citations and references are correct and that you are referencing in the appropriate style for your
    discipline
    • Check to make sure that you have not plagiarized either by failing to cite a source of information, or by using words quoted
    directly from a sourceText should be written in a clear and concise academic style; it should not be descriptive in nature or use
    the language of everyday speech.
    • There should be no grammatical or spelling errors.
    • Sentences should flow smoothly and logically.
