The biggest challenge was that I felt like each source led to five others and I was overwhelmed. The most useful aspect of this course was learning how to process the literature. I feel more confident about completing my literature review now.

I feel much more relaxed and in control. I'm no longer anxious about missing things and feel I'm running the literature review rather than it running me.

  • Where do I start? I'm overwhelmed!
  • I have read So. Much. Literature. It's all running together in my head.
  • Am I covering enough material? Is it too much? Am I even close?​
  • If one more person says, "Just find the gap," and, "synthesize, don't summarize," my head will EXPLODE! Somebody please show me how to DO it!
  • I wish someone could answer my questions without making me feel foolish for asking.
  • Am I ever going to finish my lit review? Or my degree???

I would totally be floundering at home in fetal position if I didn’t have you helping me.

I feel as though the literature review is the hardest portion of the thesis to write. I was struggling to synthesize the research as opposed to just making a laundry list of references/information. I now have concrete prompts I will be able to go back to time and time again to help me reflect on materials as I read.
