Clarify the expected research for the topic
  • Not everyone knows how to start a working on a
    literature review.
  • The students can define the general topic area,
    identify a particular issue, formulating the
    questions, and brainstorming the major points.
  • Therefore, a literature review dissertation that
    is focussed on a particular area of research,
    gains more attention comparatively.

Have introductory and conclusion
  • The introduction provides the background
    information so that the readers find themselves
    connected to the entire review.
  • This will tempt the readers to read the
    literature review.
  • A conclusion should summarize all the findings
    and help the readers take away all the important
    points after reading the review.

SAY NO TO DIRECT QUOTES

Direct quotations reduces quality
  • The students can utilize the opportunity of
    literature review to display their knowledge on
    the topic.
  • Writing down the ideas in your own words with the
    shortcomings in the literature along with their
    future scope will make the literature more
    attractive.
  • Avoiding quotes will symbolize that you have read
    and understood the literature.

DO NOT ORGANIZE BY ORDER

Organizing by Author is a common mistake
  • It is always a good literature review methodology
    to organize the identified literature based on a
    particular theme.
  • For instance, you can organize them in a
    chronological fashion to identify the development
    of the topic through time.

EMPLOY HEADING

Use of headings is a very appealing way
  • The main significance of a heading is to
    establish a visual break.
  • It also identifies the shift from one topic to
    another.
  • To achieve the goal of organizing, the use of
    headings is the best way.
  • You can give a separate heading for each theme.

MAKE USE OF TRANSITIONAL WORDS

Add transitional words to make review appealing
  • Apart from headings, another good way to make the
    content appealing is to add transitional words.
  • Some of the transitional words are however,
    furthermore, and additionally.
  • The use of such words can help you convey the
    authors point of view.
