INTRODUCTION
RECALL Articulate the learning objectives:
 Demonstrate how to write a literature review.

MOTIVATION 1. Let the students answer the following questions: (Give at least 7 – 10 seconds think time)
 How do you present a literature review?
 How do you determine if the literature review is coherent?
  How do you identify the goals of a literature review?
DISCUSSION LITERATURE REVIEW

Review of literature is one of the most important steps in the research process. It is an account of
what is already known about a particular phenomenon. The main purpose of literature review is to convey to
the readers about the work already done & the knowledge & ideas that have been already established on a
particular topic of research. Literature review is a laborious task, but it is essential if the research process is to
be successful.
A literature review uses as its database reports of primary or original scholarship & does not report
new primary scholarship itself. The primary reports used in the literature may be verbal, but in the vast
majority of cases, reports are written documents. The types of scholarship may be empirical, theoretical,
critical/analytic, or methodological in nature. Second a literature review seeks to describe, summarize,
evaluate, clarify &/or integrate the content of primary reports.
A literature review is an evaluative report of information found in the literature related to selected
area of study. The review describes, summarizes, evaluates & clarifies this literature. It gives a theoretical
base for the research & helps to determine the nature of research. A literature review is a body of text that
aims to review the critical points of knowledge on a particular topic of research. A literature review is an
account of what has been already established or published on a particular research topic by accredited
scholars & researchers.

Importance of Literature Review

Identification of a research problem & development or refinement of research questions.

Generation of useful research questions or projects/activities for the discipline.
Orientation to what is known & not known about an area of inquiry to ascertain what research can
best contribute to knowledge.
Determination of any gaps or inconsistencies in a body of knowledge.
Discovery of unanswered questions about subjects, concepts or problems.
Determination of a need to replicate a prior study in different study settings or different samples or
size or different study populations
Identification of relevant theoretical or conceptual framework for research problems.
Identification or development of new or refined clinical interventions to test through empirical
research.
Description of the strengths & weaknesses of design/methods of inquiry & instruments used in earlier
research work.
Development of hypothesis to be tested in a research study.
Helps in planning the methodology of the present research study.
It also helps in development of research instruments.
Identification of suitable design & data collection methods for a research study.

Purposes of Literature Review

The purpose of a literature review is to convey to the reader previous knowledge & facts established on a
topic, & their strength & weakness. The literature review allows the reader to be updated with the state of
research in a field & any contradictions that may exist with challenges findings of other research studies. It
helps to develop research investigative tools & to improve research methodologies. It also provides the
knowledge about the problems faced by the previous researchers’ while studying same topic.

Besides enhancing researchers’ knowledge about the topic, writing a literature review helps to:
Place each in the context of its contribution to the understanding of subject under review.
Describe the relationship of each study to other research studies under consideration.
Identify new ways to interpret & shed light on any gaps in previous research.
Resolve conflicts amongst seemingly contradictory previous studies.
 Identify areas of prior scholarship to prevent duplication of effort.
Point a way forward for further research. See what has & has not been investigated.
Develop general explanation for observed variations in a behavior or phenomenon.
Identify potential relationship between concepts & to identify researchable hypothesis.
Learn how others have defined & measured key concepts.
Identify data sources that other researchers have used.
Develop alternative research projects.
Discover how a research project is related to the work of others.
Place one’s original work (in case of thesis or dissertation) context of the existing literature.

Sources of Literature Review

Literature can be reviewed from two sources:

 Primary sources
 Secondary sources

 Primary Sources
 Literature review mostly relies on primary sources, i.e. research reports, which are description of
studies written by researchers who conducted them.
 A primary source is written by a person who developed the theory or conducted the research, or is
the description of an investigation written by the person who conducted it.
 Most primary sources are found in published literature
 A credible literature review reflects the use of mainly primary sources

 Secondary Sources
 Secondary source research documents are description of studies prepared by someone other than
the original researcher.
 They are written by people other than the individuals who developed the theory or conducted the
research.
 The secondary sources may be used when primary sources are not available or if researchers want
external opinions on an issue or problem or even the resource of their own research.

Electronic Sources
 Computer-assisted literature search has revolutionized the review of literature.
 These searches, however, for a variety of reasons may not provide the desired references.
 Electronic literature search through web may be very useful, but sometimes it can be time
consuming & unpredictable because there are many website & web pages that can lead to
information overload & confusions.

Printed Sources
 Printed sources are also used for literature review.
 Printed research summary may be located from published abstracts.
 References of the other printed sources may be located through indexes such as Google Scholar,
Wolfram Alpha, JSTOR, or Library Genesis
 Following are the main printed sources that can be used to review the relevant literature:
o Journals. There are several National & International journals which can be used to review
the research.
o Research reports
o Unpublished dissertations & theses
o Magazines & newspapers Conference papers & proceedings Encyclopedias & dictionaries
Books
 (Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) is applied through hands-on activities including the making of their own
perception in different situations.)

IV. EVALUATION / DIRECTIONS: Working in teams, try to reassemble an existing literature review (from an actual published
APPLICATION article) and write a new paraphrased format of literature. Provide at least 5-8 studies.
