HOMEWORK: TECHNICAL WRITING CHAPTER II: REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES TWO MAJOR PARTS OF REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE  Conceptual – It contains literature coming from books, journalism and other forms of material, concerning ore relevant to the study, but are data‐free or non‐empirical material, coming from both foreign and local sources.  Research – These are empirically‐based, like scientific paper, theses and dissertations, both published and unpublished, coming from local and foreign sources. PURPOSE OF REVIEW RELATED LITERATURE  It gives researcher several ideas on how to select and formulate his own research problem.  It helps researcher identify studies that have been done related to the topic he is interested in.  It avoids possible duplication of similar studies.  It guides the researcher on the possible theoretical framework he can use for his current study.  It gives direction to the researcher to browse several kinds of research designs, sampling, techniques, statistical procedures, questionnaires and process of presenting, analyzing, and interpreting data, from where he could base his own choice for his paper.  It gives a picture of a comparative analysis between variables used in reviewed materials and those used in current study. BASES FOR A GOOD REVIEW OF LITERATURE  The review material must be current.  Literature and studies reviewed must be relevant to the study.  Findings or result of reviewed study should be objective and free of biases.  The data used in the reviewed materials should be scrutinized in terms of sampling.  Technique used to ensure that generalizations are based on normal population.  Reviewed materials related to the current study should be enough to establish a strong and viable trending of result. SOURCES OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES  Graduate theses and dissertation  Encyclopedia of Educational research  Books  Internet sites and resources (websites, e‐journals, e‐books)  Dictionaries in education and psychology
