What is a Literature Review
A lit review is where you read stuff already published by other researchers / educationist.
You then synthesize what has been said, and you can then provide your critical review of their findings or ideas.
You may agree with some views / findings, and disagree with others.
You can then decide what you would like to include in your lit review that you would write that leads up to your hypothesis you wish to test.
It’s good practice to include both sides of an argument / opinion, and provide your own thoughts and what you think you may find.
This then becomes part of your Introduction section of a research paper.
