A literature review compiles and evaluates the research available on a certain topic or issue that you are researching and writing about. Because lit review formats vary greatly, be sure to read your professor’s instructions first and defer to them. A typical writing process for a literature review follows these steps:

Define Topic

• What are you looking to explore?
• Example: The impact of service- learning curricula on undergraduate university students.

Research*

• Find relevant sources.
• Read and take note of the main points, conclusions, strengths, and weaknesses of the research.

Thesis Statement*

• Your thesis statement should contain the overarching focus for your literature review as well as the main supporting points you found in the literature.
• See back for example.

Research Question*

• Write a specific question to guide your research.

• Example: How has service-learning curricula impacted undergrads in American Christian Universities since 2000?

Analyze and Evaluate

• Assess how each source relates to other research within the field.

• Group sources by theme, topic, or methodology.

• Critically evaluate research.

Write Literature Review

• Use an introduction, body paragraph(s), and a conclusion.

• Include summary, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation (if appropriate).

• Lit review may be as short as a few paragraphs or as long as a chapter.

Use your research question as a guide for research. Once you have completed the bulk of your research, compile the topic and the research results into one coherent thesis statement.
