Assessment Task
Locate, gather and organise a range of practice and theory-based literature in your chosen field, then analyse and evaluate their interconnected topics, ideas, relationships and relevance, to develop a skeletal framework for a proposed literature review and annotated bibliography. Present in a 3 minute in class presentation. Use notes in PPT to include maximum 1000 words script.
Context
A literature review is a multi-stage process. The researcher is required to scan the available information; meticulously take notes; evaluate, synthesize, and structure the information; write a critical review of the literature; and build the list of references. The more complex the research, the more demanding the literature review process becomes. Several steps precede the task of writing the review, and a number of different approaches to organising the body of the literature review exist. Before embarking on a full-length literature review, it is prudent to determine the approach, or combination of approaches, to take.
Encountering the messy nature of knowledge while working towards the literature review can be intimidating. Concept maps can help to make sense of gathered information while conducting a literature review by visualising connecting ideas across a collection of literature or a research area. They can be used as a tool to identify additional search terms during the literature search, clarify thinking about the structure of the literature review in preparation for writing the review. They enable the researcher to better understand the theory, concepts and the relationships between concepts. 1
Instructions
This assessment has three parts:

1. Concept map
2. Outline of the proposed topic and research project area
3. Literature framework tables with 10-15 key seminal papers
   This assessment will also form the basis for the work you will undertake in Assessment 2.
4. Concept Map (visual)
   Concept Maps are graphic representations of topics, ideas, and their relationships. They allow users to group information (such as research sources) in related modules so that the connections between and among the literature become more readily apparent than they might from an examination of a list. See an example of concept map below:

Follow the steps below to complete this part (1) of the Assessment.
I. Identify an area of research that interests you, which you would like to explore further. This could be inspired by an existing problem or simply be driven by a curiosity and desire to contribute to the existing body of knowledge in the field.
II. Locate and gather a range of practice and theory-based literature focussed around your selected area of research.
III. Evaluate the literature sources for their relevance to your area of research.
IV. Conduct an analysis of the literature, in order to understand the interconnected topics, ideas and relationships, these are known as emergent themes.
V. Determine an appropriate approach, or combination of approaches, for organising the literature to highlight key concepts.
VI. Create a concept map of the literature that logically visualises the connecting topics, ideas, and relationships; and highlights the important themes, potential debates and existing gaps in the body of knowledge.
2. Outline of the Literature Review
Create a skeletal framework of the proposed literature review that outlines the structure, and defines the scope and focus of the proposed literature review.
In your outline present the following information:
● The literature search strategies applied (be as detailed and specific as possible, as this is the basis on which your mentor or learning facilitator can check if you are looking at the literature correctly)
● Group the articles and briefly discuss them in the context of the basis on which they were grouped (Chronological, Methodological, Thematic or Theoretical, or some combination thereof).
● Develop a table of citations and literature (recommend approximately 10-20 papers with coverage in 4 themes/streams.
3. Literature Framework Table and annotations
Include a minimum of 10-15 annotations of significant works in the literature that are driving your research project area and topic in your literature framework table. This is an evolving document, and you should continue to update it through your research process, maybe even after this course – if applicable.
An annotation may contain all or part of the following elements depending on the content of the sources you are examining. You must include as many of these elements as are relevant for your source. These can be developed to the headings in your table.
● Bibliographic citation.
● author(s).
● scope of the research/paper.
● Key argument.
● The research methods if applicable.
● Conclusions made by the author/s.
● Strengths and limitations of the text.
● Gaps in knowledge needing exploration.
Please refer to the Assessment Rubric for details on how your submission will be assessed.
Your presentation slides may include the following slides:

1. Search process
2. Literature framework table and annotation 10-15 seminal references
3. Concept map visual
4. Gaps and directions that need to be researched
5. Project title and topic area for approval
   Referencing
   The references list should contain the sources of information you used and cited in your paper. Only include those cited in the text (this is not a bibliography) but include every citation.
   It is essential that you use appropriate APA style for citing and referencing research. Please see more information on referencing in the Academic Skills webpage.
