I just gradauted from grad school and the school neglected to teach us wtf a literature review is, what a methodology is, and just skimmed over these academic terms like we fucking new what they meant...

Literature Review
Definition: A critical recap of what has already been researched on a topic

Why do a literature review?
1. To find out for yourself what's already known about the topic
2. To give your reader a critical overview of what you found
3. To find out what's missing (gaps)

You are a great presenter. I think it is great to have an example to support your video. My students have been encouraging me to include more and more examples, some even say this is the best way they learn, through seeing the good and bad of other students dissertations. My channel was originally set up for my classes, but now I want all to access, we need to me one big supportive community regarding help with academic skills that lead to student success - Dr M D Egan
