In the session we will cover:

 

  1. The role of the literature review in your proposal
  2. How to map concepts in your thesis and then search for relevant sources.
  3. How to evaluate the significance of found sources. 
  4. How to ensure you aren’t missing anything important.
  5. How to use sources to build a structure for your lit review that supports your analysis.
