Literature Review

The literature review done by researchers is very important because it determines the quality of education . It is not supposed to be a summary of the available literature that is done prior to the research . It is instead supposed to be a deep understanding of what has been done by other researchers on the same research (book D .N Beile

. 2005 The thorough understanding of previous research done will

enable the researcher identify other perspectives not considered by other researchers . In this sense , the researcher widens the scope of the that has already been chosen and is hence able to fine-tune it

Generativity is described by Shulman as the ability to build on the scholarship and research of those who have come before us (Boote D .N Beile

. 2005 . Generativity is very important as it gives weight to the research and actually provides the researcher with a base upon which to build on the research . It is necessary that a researcher bases the research on already established ideas and this therefore means that he or she has to have a clear and thorough understanding of what has already been done . This is mostly applicable if the research is educational

By looking at what others have already done , the researcher is able to re-check the methodology chosen and justify the reason as to why those specific methods of research have been chosen . Furthermore , the literature review introduces the researcher to many other scholars who have done research in the same . In doing so , the researcher will get to know who to contact for what information . This then helps the researcher identify various contacts that can be contacted to provide information during the process of research . These people are very important because they have already done research concerning the and are in a better position to help identify the mistakes that the researcher is making

Since the literature review is supposed to show the importance of carrying out the proposed research , it is used to identify gaps that are there in the previous research ( HYPERLINK "http /yourdissertation .com " http /yourdissertation .com . Only educational literature with information related to the dissertation can be used . This is because it has to be proved that they have been researched and recorded . This will then give the researcher confidence when studying the . By establishing that others have deemed the worth studying , it means that the researcher has chosen a that is important and requires to be looked into . The other researchers who have already researched on the will be an encouragement to the researcher to continue with the research

When interacting with the other researchers and also by reading the literature , the researcher is able to establish that other researchers when doing their own research also faced the problems that are evident in the proposed research . This helps...
