TOPIC: Literary Analysis that supports the question: What classroom management strategies and instructional methods foster self-regulating behaviors amongst Kindergarten students?
Although you need to summarize relevant research, it is also vital that you evaluate this work, show the relationships between different work, and show how it relates to your work. Keep in mind that the literature review should provide the context for your research by looking at what work has already been done in your research area. It is not supposed to be just a summary of other people’s work!
Follow these guidelines:
? 3 pages
? APA format
? Use the third person
? Do not include your opinion or indicate a prejudice towards the findings.
? Discuss each article in its own paragraph so that you do not ?mix? or combine resources.
? As you transition from one article to the next, make connections between the articles.
? Finally, in your concluding paragraph, summarize what you have discussed and provide clarity about gaps or limitations in the literature on your topic area.
The three articles include a lot of information regarding the researchers methods and statistics. It is ok to mention this in the analysis but focus more on the following:
? demographics of subjects included in the study
? Researcher?s Discussion (usually provided near the end)
Here are some of the questions this literature review should answer:
? What do we already know in the immediate area concerned?
? What are the characteristics of the key concepts or the main factors or variables?
? What are the relationships between these key concepts, factors or variables?
? What are the existing theories?
? Where are the inconsistencies or shortcomings in our knowledge and understanding?
