Assignment:
The most important instructions is: Do not cheat and copy from others, online available papers, studies, industry reports etc... I will check that in details. If you can find it, I can find it too. I will use multiple plagiarism checking software and will do my google search too. Every attempt of plagiarism will lead to direct failure.
Note, that proper citing of literature is not copying peaces of some papers, but telling in your words how you have understood the contributions. In other words, just blind copying text from other papers, putting it in quotations and citing a paper is not how literature review is done. Check the attached example, that is how the Literature Review should be done. Also do not do literal translations from other languages. I have cought people translating from chinise and french even though I do not speak these languages. In other words, I have zero tolerance towards plagiarism, so pleas do not do that..
That was the most important part :)
here are the guidlines for the literature review:
I) The Literature Review (3 ECTS credits) should consist of about 9 pages and must be written English (other professors could take German too, but not me).
II) The Literature Review will be evaluated by the following predefined criteria:
- Description of the problem and of the aim of the paper/research question
- Logical layout, structure and analysis
- Specific work on the problem, plausibility of the presentation
- Hints to further links and questions, possibly connection between theory and practice, own ideas (max. 5 additional points in given cases)
- Formal presentation (Typo, ...)
- Language, orthography
- Choice of literature, work with the literature, quotations
You can either survey literuture on the topic in general or focus on something more speciffic. If you decide to focus, clearly state to what you are focusing on.
How much would it cost?
