According to our reading a literature review involves discussing published that includes certain subject areas and certain information that may be included within a certain time period. (UNC Chapel Hill, n.d.) A literature review is a descriptive summarization. When writing a literature review it is important that we are familiar with the material we are writing about. We want to make sure we develop our own ideas because we want to make sure the main points are brought out. The narrower the topic the easier it will be to limit the sources that are needed to be read. (UNC Chapel Hill, n.d.) Although a thesis will be included in these writings they may be simplified making sure the reader knows our main objective for writing this review. Organization is also very important make sure your ideas are written down and try to keep them in order so that your review will make sense to the readers.

literature reviews discusses published information in a particular subject area, sometimes, within a certain time period. Usually having an organizational pattern combining both summary and synthesis, a literature review can be just a simple summary of sources. The difference between an academic research paper and a literature review is that academic research papers is to develop new arguments. A literature review is to summarize and synthesize the arguments. Literature reviews also provide solid backgrounds for a research papers investigations. In a literature review paper, make sure to define your goal and do your homework. Review things logically.
