Introduction to Systematic Literature Review Part 1: Structure and Planning Online

Systematic Reviews are a type of literature review which are comprehensive and replicable, ensuring that all relevant research is considered for inclusion.  This research method, which synthesises empirical research to build authority, originated in health and life sciences and has become increasingly popular in the social sciences.

In this first workshop we’ll explore the key traits of systematic literature reviews, discuss the stages that make up good practice, and focus on planning your review in preparation for a comprehensive literature search. This will include:

  • A look at good systematic reviews and reviews with significant problems,
  • Discussion of frameworks and protocols,
  • Exploring Library databases to understand effective searching,
  • Scoping searches and development of keywords.

This workshop is the first of a set of two; attendees are strongly encouraged to attend both sessions - Registration link for part one.
