1. Strip out summary paragraphs from research
2. Reorder summary paragraphs for the literature review
3. Combine paragraphs if necessary
4. Add topic sentences and transitions to form literature review's body paragraphs
5. Add introduction and conclusion paragraphs to complete the literature review
The literature review does not have to be a daunting or mysterious academic assignment. As a matter of fact, the so-called "literature review" is a common task in the professional workplace but is called a "backgrounder" or "background research" instead of a literature review. The video provides a real-world example of writing a practical literature review as an HR employee in an IT company.
Stop being intimidated by what is actually an easy assignment by learning what a literature review really is and how to do one quickly and easily.

True
jeez you tell me! very helpful
@@peakdavid Sir, sincerely, thanks you so much for your great videos. We still need some help, I hope you could do couple of videos about: building up academic writing skills in general from scratch, how to summarize a journal article before starting writing a Literature review, how to take notes during a lecture, how to read faster, how to scan and skim through our readings, how to summarize .. etc. We as international students didn't learn such skills properly in our home countries, and we do suffer once we get such assignments. The way you teach make things extremely simple and easy. I hope you could read my comment. Thank you very much once again, we do really appreciate it thank you sir. :)
omg same!!!
This was an unbelievable help. I had to write a 10 page literature review in approximately 24 hours because like any good grad student, I procrastinated. What I saw as a daunting task was quickly made easier after watching this video. I broke down 10 different peer reviewed journal articles into their own segments, then combined them. Added an intro and a conclusion and voila I was over 10 pages. I might make it through grad school after all.
You have learned the secret--find the underlying formula. Apply it many times.
Wish me luck, I am about to do the same now
@@mufaro. 😂 me too
@@aphiwemagaya3279 Same😬😅
I'm in grad school now, and I am currently writing a literary review. Thank you for this tip!
David, I used your guidance in my thesis for my dissertation. The quote from my committee memebers about my literature was as follows, "This is the best literature review I have ever read and I have read a lot of them" David, thank you, just great stuff in your videos.
Can't wait to report my success story!
I hope you aced it. If you need help with any assignment, reach out. I have numerous testimonials.
Their published findings are called the "Literature" Your search for them is called a "Review" . OMG! It's a "LITERATURE REVIEW" . I laughed so hard on this but it was all I needed to mentally see my whole assignment ready. THANK YOU, 90s TV-sales guy!

I have been freaking out and procrastinating for 2 weeks because no matter what I read, I could not wrap my head around writing a Literature Review! I almost cried by the end of the video with how simply and eloquently you helped outline a Literature Review!!! Seriously, thank you!! Maybe all hope is not lost 😭😭
Hannah--I am so glad it helped! You are to be commended for working so hard on this.
How did it go? I'm literally in the same situation rn
Procrastination has been my downfall for years. My current paper is due in 3 days time. So far this video has been super helpful.
@@piwam2431 How are you getting on? Mine is due in approx 5 weeks 😬
Well I’m currently facing this
doing my PhD now and im just like.."why did i not come across this earlier?" .. this is great!
Also doing a PhD - This really was very helpful!
but he didn't say anything about the TOC, nothing about the methodology etc. he only described the structure and content of the theory section, but nothing about the empirical, which should actually be the most important.
Preach!!! Same here!!! This video was sssoooo helpful!!!

You are the professor a student imagines getting in University. Thankyou for your support
That is very kind of you to say. Thank you.
It took me 1 hour, rather than 30 minutes, but this video is exceptional. For the first time in my academic history, I have finally mastered the techniques for writing a critically analysed literature review. Thank you so much David!
Seriously, this video is better than using AI tools to write the literature review. By far, this is the only video that is short and sweet and explains what a literature review is supposed to be!
this voice makes me so confident writing this paper at 1am
If you can't explain it in simple terms then you haven't understood it well enough. You sure explained it well enough for a three year old to understand. Many thanks.

Thank you for making Literature Reviews so much less daunting! I have roughly 24 hours to complete a 1,500-word literature review and I have been feeling so down, staring at my blank word document, having no idea where to start. As a first-year, mature aged student who hasn't done any sort of higher education for the past 10 years, I can't tell you how helpful this has been. I finally feel as though I MIGHT be able to finish it by the deadline! And then start on another 2,300-word Literature Review due roughly a week later 🙃
You're welcome, Aimee. There are three key skills when gathering research: (1) using your research question to guide you: kzhead.info/sun/aK1-gc6IomlvnGg/bejne.html (2) knowing how to dissect a journal article: kzhead.info/sun/d9qDp96uqKZsrYk/bejne.html And (3) knowing how to write an annotation: kzhead.info/sun/qpd6j9t9hKikeXk/bejne.html Good luck!

You are a life savior. I've been struggling to write my Lit Review, and you have made things a lot easier for me. Thanks a ton Professor!
You have given me clarity and peace! I have finally understood the basics, alone. I cannot tell you how confused I was. I am looking forward to watching all your videos to write my first MSc literature review.
It is so amazing how one becomes so motivated to start working on something as soon as they begin to understand it. I have been putting off my lit review for 3 weeks because I did not really understand the 24-page document given to us by our tutor but after watching this video, I'm now so confident and fully understand what exactly it is that I need to do for my assessment. Thank you for such a wonderful and informative video.

This is very true: I’ve been struggling to understand what is expected of me in my lit review assignment for weeks as could not understand my tutor’s explanation. This killed my motivated and made me feel overwhelmed. I’m actually looking forward to getting up tomorrow and getting it done. Can’t wait till it’s done! Haha
This makes so much sense to the lay person facing the daunting process of having to come up with thousands of words. A lot of university lecturers are useless in explaining how to write a literature review and breaking it down into smaller manageable parts. A great demonstration well done.
This should be required watching for everyone writing their first literature review! The example is very helpful and I feel so much more prepared after watching :) Thank you!
Great to hear, Darah. The key is writing good summaries first: kzhead.info/sun/nLttlbyEeKaFm6M/bejne.html
So awesome and simple. Its amazing how months of frustration and rewrites and not knowing how to write a lit review can be explained in such a short simple way! Thank you.
THANK YOU THANK YOU! Excellent walk through and precise. This is my first doing a lit review in my second master's program. My first masters was a project based and I didn't have to do one and was totally lost and extremely overwhelmed. I finished and waiting for the evaluation.
That was a freaking amazing breakdown of how to write a literature review! OMG, usually I have a ton of questions and I have to watch other videos to reinforce what the last video was trying to teach me, but your video is a one-stop-shop. Thank you!
You're welcome! There is also a text version - www.peakwriting.com/litreview/Index.html
Thanks David! Because of this video, I was able to write my literature review in one day and got a good grade! Will definitely be coming back the literature review for my thesis! Thank you and have a beautiful day :)
I cannot express how grateful I am that I stumbled upon this video. I have read an unreasonable amount of articles and watch an embarrassing amount of videos trying to figure out how to write my research paper. I was feeling incredibly overwhelmed and this video really made it click for me. I feel like all too often, professors forget that not all of us are working towards becoming a Literature professor, writing a research paper is something I will literally only do ONCE... and only to get my degree. Thank you, Mr. Taylor!!
whew !! You're my hero right now. You have saved me hours of procrastination anxiety. Thank you from Australia. Getting a good explanation of how to construct a literature review is also a worldwide problem to go in paragraph 2 ;)
I'm currently writing a literature review on epidemiology and pandemics. This video is timely. Thank you Mr David.
I love this guy! So good - the clarity, the voice, the quality content.
Awesome presentation! This helped me more than anything I have been taught in the classroom in a year. It took 18 minutes and I now understand how to do a literature review.
David, As someone now going through the throes of his Master's Thesis, I thank you! We had been tasked with writing a 25 page literature review and I've been struggling trying to figure out just how to begin. Your instructions are clear and structured in a way that makes the task feel so much less daunting. My hat's off to you sir!
Thank you, Brandon. You may want to review this tutorial on how to write an annotated bibliography (which must be done before the lit review): kzhead.info/sun/nLttlbyEeKaFm6M/bejne.html

same feeling here Bro!.
I know, it's amazing! I feel so eager to begin reading and writing my biomedical review now!
Thanks for this comment. I am hoping that in some ways, I may be able to finish my literature review within 5 days.
Hi Dr. Taylor. I stumbled upon your videos at a time when I was deeply overwhelmed with my thesis writing. I didn't know what to do or how to continue anymore. Thanks to your video lectures--I can say that I now have a direction and that I am better armed with strategies. So thank you so much for what you do. You're a huge help. God bless and more power to you.
I went through so many videos of literature review but they made me worried because I could not understand them and didn't know how to put all the suggestions into practice. But this tutorial made so much sense and it's so practical. It was like lifting the weight off my shoulders. Thank you.
Excellent way of breaking it up. I find it really difficult to know what exactly I should be looking for in a paper for each section that I'm writing. Reading all the research first, compiling paragraphs and picking out bits later in order to have a selection of options makes it way easier.
*THIS IS THE BEST EDUCATIONAL VIDEO I HAVE EVER WATCHED. WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO!!!*
Almost a whole year later. Spoke right into my being. I am never letting go of this knowledge that you have driven into my core. Bravo. Thanks to you, I'll never be intimidated by a literature review again.

Thank you for doing this. I typically do not take the time to comment on youtube videos, however, I am required for my healthcare ethics class to do a lit review for an upcoming research project. The instructor did not provide any details to a literature review and I was totally lost and starting to stress out. After finding a few 2 minute videos that really did not help, I came across yours and it gave me a clear understanding of the purpose for this lit review as well as the bibliography that I turned in last week. Now, I know what I am doing and how to utilize previous assignments. So, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!

OVERWHELMING. I am 15 pages short in my Lit Review (out of 40), and with his steps, I feel relieved as it makes it easier and clearer to just follow and apply! Hopefully, I finish it before August starts. THIS 17-MINUTE VIDEO SHOULD BE A SEMINAR IN EVERY DOCTORAL PROGRAM. THANK YOU A MILLION.

I'm assigning a "literature review 'light'" to my students this semester, and I am SO pleased to see you have created a video on this writing genre.
Thank you so much for the kind words, Linda. There is also a text version - www.peakwriting.com/litreview/Index.html If you want to check the accuracy of your citations, I recommend CiteFast: kzhead.info/sun/lZasgKdwsXipn3A/bejne.html
@@peakdavid Thank you!
You are talking like a preacher of the gospel. I love listening to you! You just made writing a literature review so SIMPLE. Thank you sir!
Hallaleuhah! There is also a text version - www.peakwriting.com/litreview/Index.html If you want to check the accuracy of your citations, I recommend CiteFast: kzhead.info/sun/lZasgKdwsXipn3A/bejne.html
My God! NOBODY EVER broke down a literature review as simple to understand as this, you are a genius. Now I can actually see the method to the whole madness. Goodness gracious! why didn't ANYONE tell me it was this straight forward before? Thank you so so much David, you have NO idea what you have done for me in this 17+ minutes and FREE too. Thank you!
are you supposed to write your own summary or use the abstract of the articles?
@@sarahsameh1516 You are supposed to have written the summaries. If you listened to the opening part of his talk 0:17 to 0:51 and then later in 4:46, you would have heard him say that. However I think you are going to have to read the abstract and conclusion to be able to 'figure out' the themes 6:52 (problem-solution, cause-effect, etc), I hope this helps.
I surely didn't know where to start from for my literature review, thanks a lot David this video has simplified everything.
