[Music] video
hi everyone I am Niha agal I'm the
founder ofis of communications and in
this video we are going to talk all
about writing a literature review I'm
also going to share with you a very
special AI tool that is going to make
your literature search super easy so
without further delay let's get started
first let's understand what is a
literature review so if we break this
down literature here means the writing
or the work of others and review means
analysis so in simple terms literature
review means the analysis of the writing
or work that has been carried out by
others now this literature review can be
a part of a bigger document for example
a research paper or it can be an
independent document itself for example
a college assignment to write a
literature review on a particular topic
now it's part of a research paper then
this section appears usually after the
introduction ction section and before
the research methodology section so now
how do we go about writing a literature
review so literature review can actually
be split into three distinct sections
which is the introduction the body and the
conclusion as part of the introduction
section you would first introduce the
topic as to why is even the topic worth
reviewing if your literature review is
part of a bigger research paper then in
that case you can also share the
research Gap or the problem statement of
your work then you will go on to Define
some of the key terms or share certain
important Concepts that will be
highlighted in your review once you've
done that you can give an overview of
the topics that will be covered in your
review or basically what information are
you going to share in your review you
can just give an overview of that then
you can share how your review has been
organized or basically what are the
different categories of topics that you
will be reviewing or how is the
information me categorized into
different topics then you can share the
scope of your literature review so
basically what are the class of research
papers that you are going to review or
not review what is the reason behind
that so what you will do is you will set
the boundary of your literature review
and all of these things together form
the introduction section of of your
literature review next comes the body of
your literature review and this is the
most important section of your review
because this is where you're going to
share the work that has been carried out
by others but before we get into that
I'm going to share with you this amazing
AI tool that is going to make your
literature search super easy and that is
our Discovery our Discovery acts like
your companion in this literature search
process it provides you with
personalized recommendation ions from
your area of research so that you don't
miss out on important articles and that
too in social media style so that it is
easy for you to consume in fact based on
your search it also shows you similar
papers ensuring that you are able to do
a thorough literature survey once you
open a research paper to enhance your
reading experience it provides you with
summaries audio reading of titles and
abstracts and also converts or
translates the text into your own
language now to organize all your
research papers it allows you to
segregate them in different categories
by bookmarking them into different
reading lists you can also share your
literature survey very easily with other
people in fact even on social media like
LinkedIn and Twitter and most
importantly it allows you to export your
literature to a reference management
software like zoto or mlay making your
research paper writing such a breeze so
overall I think this is such a fantastic
tool for all your literature survey
needs now if you think it won't show as
many search results don't worry because
our Discovery has a huge database of
Articles including 115 million plus
research papers 40 million plus Open
Access articles 32,000 plus journals and
tie ups with some of the biggest
publishing houses to ensure that you get
the best content at your fingertips in
fact the best part I like about this is
that our Discovery is easily accessible
through the web or the app on your phone
so you should definitely check it out
you now before you start writing it's
important to think about how are you
going to organize this section first is
chronological order and this is the
simplest approach because here you share
how the development of the topic has
taken place over time this also gives a
very good understanding to your audience
as to how that field has evolved over
time and what is the current stage of
research in that field but one thing
that you need to note here is don't just
list down all the literature one by one
but instead focus on the turning points
the patterns that have actually shaped
the direction of that field and this is
going to add more value to your or
literature review the second approach
that I've seen being most commonly used
is methodological a lot of the times you
might be writing a review on a topic
where different sources have used
different methodologies so in that case
you can also review the results and
conclusion of the methodologies that are
followed by the different sources for
example qualitative versus quantitative
or theoretical versus experimental and
then give your comparative analysis
about it the other two approaches are
thematic and theoretical you can use the
Thematic approach when your research
topic has different themes to it for
example if I'm writing a review on solar
cells then different themes could be
materials used to make solar cells or
applications of solar cells and finally
the last one is theoretical so say for
example your research has different
theoretical Frameworks or models
involved in it then you can do a
contrast and comparison of these various
Frameworks various models or you can
also summarize all this information and
share that in your study now that you
know how to organize the body of your
literature review the next thing is to
understand how to write this body now
one very important thing you need to
remember here is that simply stating
what other people have done and just
citing the literature is not enough you
need to share the analysis of what other
people have done and you need to share
your own point of view so instead of
Simply paraphrasing the literature this
is what you should be doing first
summarize and synthesize try to group
similar literature together and then
share the main points of each Source
second analyze and interpret try to
share your interpretation wherever
possible and then also discuss the
significance of the findings of these
different research papers when it comes
to your own topic of literature review
and finally critically evaluate share
the trend and weaknesses of the
different sources of the different
research papers to give a complete
evaluation in your literature review in
fact in this way you will be able to
analyze the work of others and go to a
deeper level of understanding about
their research rather than simply
stating their findings now this is
something that differentiates a good
literature review from a not so good one
now the final section is the conclusion
if your literature review is an
independent study then very similar to a
research paper you will first reiterate
what was the purpose of taking up this
review and what were some of the
important research questions that you
were trying to answer then you should
share what were the findings that you
came across after doing an extensive
literature survey like this then you
should draw conclusions from your study
for example how can this research field
be taken forward or what are the various
applications that can be explored in
this field of course this will vary from
topic to topic but the idea here is to
share the conclusions or significance of
your research study and what does it
mean for your audience but if your
literature review is part of a research
paper then the important thing to share
is that after an extensive literature
survey what is the plan of action that
you have arrived at which will help in
overcoming that research gap or the
problem statement which forms the object
Ive of your study and then you can close
this section by sharing the significance
of the study and how do you plan to make
an impact and now to answer the most
common question that all of you ask me
is how many papers should I read for my
literature review well the answer is it
varies for example if you're writing a
literature review for a college
assignment sometimes the university will
ask you to only review three to four
papers if you're writing a literature
review for a research article sometimes
you might need to site at least 30 to 40
papers or if your literature review is
actually part of a review paper that
you're writing then sometimes the number
goes up to 70 to 100 papers or even more
but this number is very subjective
because it varies from topic to topic
and the kind of literature review that
you're working on now to make this
entire process easy for you I have
actually listed down a lot of AI Tools
in my past two videos which you can
check out and of course along with that
don't forget to use our Discovery and
now thank you so much for watching this
video and I wish you have a fantastic career
