Developing a Literature ReviewThink of the literature search from Week 3 as the selection of building materials for a house, and this week's literature review is like a second story on your house—you are bringing your project to a new level. How has the construction of your literature review progressed? Has your ongoing research changed your perspective on the topic? In this Discussion, you will share your experiences developing a literature review with your classmates.To prepare for this Discussion:

• Review the articles located in the Learning Resources for tips on conducting a literature review and how to evaluate the literature during your search.
• How have you used these resources to improve your literature review? Are there other resources you have used that might be helpful to others?
• Consider how developing a literature review has influenced how you search for information in other areas of your life.
• How do the newest sources you have gathered this week fit in with the previous sources you identified?

With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 3 a 2- to 3-paragraph evaluation of your progress and experiences developing a literature review. Include strategies you have implemented, other helpful resources you have used outside of the Learning Resources, and how your perspective on information gathering has changed.
