A literature review is the backbone of a rigorous research study. It goes beyond explaining a topic, providing a historical perspective, or outlining legislative issues. Rather, the purpose of a literature review is to situate your study within the context of current research.
In this webinar, participants will learn how a literature review identifies gaps in knowledge, supports the research problem, and connects their study to broader academic conversations. Whether you are just beginning your research journey or refining your study, this session will provide practical insights to strengthen your scholarly work.
