4. CHAPTER 2 REVIEW OF SELECTED / RELATED LITERATURE (AND RESEARCH)

5. PURPOSE To provide the reader with a comprehensive review of the literature related to the problem under investigation The review of related literature should greatly expand upon the introduction and background information presented in Chapter 1.

6. May contains theories and models a historical overview current trends significant research data published CONTENTCONTENT

7. GENERAL TIPS Give structure to the LR –Introduction –A body (main idea or argument) –Conclusion –Section headers can be useful to highlight the main points for the reader

8. Section headers can be useful to highlight the main points for the reader. However, the different sections should still flow together –history of the principal/problem, –importance of the principal, –current selection practices, Methodology Process Procedure –recommended selection practices.

9. As LR may be lengthy, it is essential to divide the chapter into as many sections and subsections as needed to logically organize the information presented. (Note: Each section and subsection heading must be properly listed in the Table of Contents)

10. Explain the relevance of material you use and cite –Do not simply restate what others have said –Explain what are the information or quoted material means in relation to your LR Is there a relevant connection between a specific quote or information and the corresponding argument or point you are making about the literature. What is it? Why is it necessary to include this piece of information or quote?

11. Use verb tenses strategically –Present tense is used for relating what other authors say and for discussing the literature, theoretical concepts, methods, ect. ‘In her article on biodiversity, Jones (2012) stipulates that …’ in addition, use the present tense when you present your observations on the literature. ‘However, on the important question of extinction, Jones remains silent’ –Past tense is used for recounting events, results found, etc ‘Jones & Green (2013) conducted experiments over a ten-year period. They determined that it was not possible to recreate the specimen’

12. CITATIONS As LR presents information and conclusions drawn by other researchers, citations should be used extensively throughout the chapter. Although you are presenting information from other researchers and writers, avoid overuse of direct quotations. Including many direct quotations produces a literature review that usually lacks transitions and flow, and is difficult to read.

13. LR is NOT the place for the researcher to interject any personal ideas or theories. Direct quotations, indirect quotations or paraphrasing, as well as any information attributable to other researchers and individuals - require citations.

14. SUMMARY Generally, LR ends with a short summary of the information presented in the chapter. Several paragraphs that highlight the most pertinent information from the review of literature are usually sufficient.
