This assignment will help you understand the importance of quality literature review in research projects.
In 700–900 words, post your answers to the following questions by the due date assigned to this and Cite any sources in APA format on a separate page.
Discussion Area:
Conducting review of literature is an important part of a research project. However, would it not be a waste of time if the researcher already knows that there is no prior research available? What should the researcher do in such a case?
A good literature review requires a worthwhile, justifiable, even compelling research question. How would you define a worthwhile research question? Provide an IT-oriented example of a worthwhile research question and use creditable references to justify your example.
Determining what references are acceptable versus unacceptable is critical to developing a quality literature review. A best practice for recognizing an acceptable reference is to key on scholarly periodicals, scholarly books, reputable translations of foreign works, students’ theses, research forums or hotlines on the Internet, and Internet publications by recognized professional, industry, or government organizations. In addition, the following may be acceptable references: reputable news media, serious popular magazines, government publications, and Internet versions of these sources. An unacceptable reference is one of the top reasons for poor-quality literature reviews. What are the attributes of an unacceptable reference? Provide an example of an unacceptable IT-oriented reference and the reasons why it is unacceptable.
Picking a topic that is too broad makes it difficult to conduct a useful literature review. The topic “Online Learning” may be too broad. What would you suggest as an alternative topic to this topic in order to refine your research? Why?
Respond to the questions using the lessons and vocabulary found in the reading. Support your answers with examples and research. Your responses should clarify your understanding of the topic. They should be your own, original, and free from plagiarism. Follow APA formatting for citing sources.
