Dr Fabiana Fausto McCracken will present and discuss strategies to support you to:

• Evaluate selected sources for purpose, accuracy, authority, relevance, and currency.
• Identify similarities and differences regarding themes, methodological approach, and findings within the literature.
• Create cohesive links between paragraphs and sections of your literature review.

Some of the strategies covered in this section include using clear and precise language to identify key theories and concepts in the literature. You will be encouraged to complete activities, engage with other students, and ask questions to extend your learning.
