Adventurous travelers may see their journey as an investigative effort to identify landmarks on their expedition. Similarly, evaluation is an investigative effort that attempts to identify the landmarks of merit, worth, and significance. Before fully refining the focus of any investigation—or research—individuals should attempt to determine the current state of affairs in their area of interest.</p
Researchers attempt to establish merit, worth, and significance applicable to other researchers, practitioners, and the body of knowledge. One of the most common ways to accomplish this is to conduct a literature review. A literature review allows one to take a “snapshot” of the established knowledge in a particular area. Using this snapshot, researchers can determine the merit of their research questions and how they may need to modify their research goals.
For this Assignment, you conduct a review of literature relevant to the case you selected and the goals you developed in Week 5.
To prepare:
• Locate a minimum of six full-text research articles to use in your literature review. You can include the two articles from the Discussion post.
Write a 2- to 3-page literature review that addresses the following:
• Synthesize the findings in the literature as they relate to the case you selected and goals you developed in Week 5.
• Explain the original conclusions that you derived from the evidence you gathered.
• Support your synthesis and conclusions using evidence from the literature.
