Assignment task: For this task, you are required to produce a literature review of one thousand words on a topic of your choice that is related to your discipline. A literature review summarizes, critically analyses, and evaluates previous research available on a subject or topic, presenting it in an organized way. Conducting a literature review should enable you to find out what research has already been done and identify what is unknown within your topic. Make sure you use at least 4-8 academic sources which are credible, and make sure you read any landmark studies and major theories related to your chosen topic. Remember, your task is to build an argument, not a library. Tips: Based on your reading and notes, you can look for: - Trends and patterns (in theory, method or results): do certain approaches become more or less popular over time? - Themes: what questions or concepts recur across the literature? - Debates, conflicts and contradictions: where do sources disagree? - Pivotal publications: are there any influential theories or studies that changed the direction of the field? - Gaps: what is missing from the literature? Are there weaknesses that need to be addressed?
