Write a literature review for your project
- Write a three-to-six page literature review for your project with complete citations that are references in a "References" page that is separate from your 3-6 pages of literature review.
- Your literature review should have at least 8 references.
- You must give the context of each paper you cite and state its relevance to your paper. A good literature review provides answers to the following questions: (i) How have others answered similar questions? (ii) Who else has used similar data? (iii) Who else has used similar models or methods? (iv) What is my paper's contribution to this literature? Where does my paper fit?
- This literature review should be an extensive survey of the literature relevant to your research question. Note that this is different from what you will include in the introductions of your final project papers.
- You will be graded on organization, clarity, and completeness of this literature review.
- You will also be graded on how you tie this literature review into your project. In other words, your literature review should relate why these references relate to your research question.
- A copy of this document (PDF) should be available in the
LitReviewfolder of your project repository on GitHub by 1:30pm on Monday, April 29. You do not need to e-mail this project to Dr. Evans or the TA. We will clone your personal repository for the class (forked from the main repository) to get it.
