ReviewReview
“Researchers almost never conduct a study in an intellectual vacuum: their studies are undertaken within the context of an already existing knowledge base. Researchers generally undertake a literature review to familiarise themselves with that knowledge base”.
(Polit and Hungler, 2000)
Why Conduct a Literature Review?Why Conduct a Literature Review?
• Avoid “reinventing the wheel”– Learn from others in/outside your area– Know the ‘leading edge’
• Help define your objectives & hypotheses– Source for research idea, research approach– Justify significance (science, engineering...)
• Is your work asking/answering the best questions?
• Put your work in context within the field– Link in discussion section of thesis
• Agreement/disagreement..lead to conclusions
What’s In a Literature Review?What’s In a Literature Review?
• Critical review of the “State of the Art” relevant to your objectives
• Synthesis of relevant literature– Organized in appropriate topics– Not a sequence of abstracts!
PlagiarismPlagiarism
• “To appropriate of pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own”1
• Growing problem with internet
• An academic offence
• Citing the reference at the end of a copied (or mostly copied) phrase/paragraph is still plagiarism
• Use your own words
1The New Penguin English Dictionary, Penguin, 1986
ReferencesReferences
• Cite the original reference, not the reference that cited the original reference
• Go to the source article so you know what it said
• Be current and go back in time!!!– The 90’s..80’s…70’s…….20’s…
Part II. Creswell’s 5 steps to Conduct Part II. Creswell’s 5 steps to Conduct a Literature Reviewa Literature Review
• Step 1: Identify Key Terms or “Descriptors”• Extract key words from your title
(remember, you may decide to change the title later)
• Use some of the words other authors reported in the literature
Creswell, J.W. (2005) Educational Research: Planning, Conducting, and Evaluating Quantitative and Qualitative Research
Creswell’s 5 steps to Conduct a Creswell’s 5 steps to Conduct a Literature Review (cont’d)Literature Review (cont’d)
• Step 2: Locate Literature• Use academic libraries, do not limit your search
to an electronic search of articles
• Use primary and secondary sources. A “primary source” is research reported by the researcher that conducted the study. A “secondary source” is research that summarizes or reports findings that come from primary sources
Creswell, J.W. (2005) Educational Research: Planning, Conducting, and Evaluating Quantitative and Qualitative Research
Step 2: Locate LiteratureStep 2: Locate Literature (cont’d)(cont’d)
• It is “best to report mostly primary sources” (p. 82)
• Search different types of literature: summaries, encyclopedias, dictionaries and glossaries of terms, handbooks, statistical indexes, reviews and syntheses, books, journals, indexed publications, electronic sources, abstract series, and databases

• Step 3: Critically Evaluate and Select Literature• Rely on journal articles published in
national journals• Prioritize your search: first look for
refereed journal articles, then, non-refereed articles, then books, then conference papers, dissertations and theses and then papers posted to websites

• Step 4: Organize the Literature• Create a “file” or “abstract” system to keep
track of what you read. Each article you read should be summarized in one page containing
Title (type the title so that you can later copy-paste this into the References section of your paper)
Source: journal article, book, glossary, etc.

Step 4: Organize the Literature Step 4: Organize the Literature (cont’d)(cont’d)
Research problem: one or two lines will suffice
Research Questions or Hypotheses
Data collection procedure (a description of sample characteristics can be very handy as well)
Results or findings of the study
• Sort these abstracts into groups of related topics or areas which can then become the different sections of your review

• Step 5: Write a Literature Review• Types of Reviews:
Thematic Review: a theme is identified and studies found under this theme are described. Major ideas and findings are reported rather than details.
Creswell, J.W. (2005) Educational Research: Planning, Conducting, and Evaluating Quantitative and Qualitative Research
Step 5: Write a Literature ReviewStep 5: Write a Literature Review(cont’d)(cont’d)
Study-by-study Review: a detailed summary of each study under a broad theme is provided. Link summaries (or abstracts) using transitional sentences. Must be organized and flow coherently under various subheadings. Avoid string quotations (i.e., lengthy chunks of text directly quoted from a source)

A paraphrase is a passage borrowed from a source and rewritten in your own words. A paraphrase should be true to the original authors idea, but is rewritten in your own words and sentence structure. Since you are using someones else’s ideas and expressing them in your own words, it is very important to give credit to the source of the idea.A paraphrase should not use any of the original authors words except incidental conjunctions and common prepositions.
What is a Paraphrase?
As Kearns notes:
“It is desirable to find agreement on terminology that is acceptable to all stakeholders—schools, Vocational Education Training (VET), higher education, employers, individuals, and communities and which recognises that the new agenda of employability skills for the 21st century is about essential life skills as well as enterprise and employability skills.”
(Kearns 2001,p.85)
The Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Business Council of Australia undertook a comprehensive study of‘employability’ skills in Australia. This study defined as employability skills:
“… skills required not only to gain employment, but also to progress within an enterprise so as to achieve one’s potential and contribute successfully to enterprise strategic directions. Employability skills are also sometimes referred to as Employability skills, capabilities or key competencies “
(Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry &Business Council of Australia 2002, p.3).

Teamwork is incorporated within higher education (HE) curricula for a number of
reasons including: assisting students to construct knowledge with alternate viewpoints,
improving communication and providing students with the opportunity to practice the
generic skills required for the workforce (Staggers et al., 2008).

Oakley et al. (2004) suggest that members of an effective team often: work together by
assisting one another to the greatest possible extent; are effective at managing conflict;
and ensure that each team member is responsible and accountable.

Employers put high level of interests in employability skills as must have
skills from graduates. There is no significant differences between the size
of company and employability skills. There are however, significant
differences between information skills and technology skills acquired by
graduates (Husain, Mokhtar, Ahmad, & Mustapha, 2010).
