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 (of three) we’ll explore the key traits of systematic literature reviews, discuss the stages that make up good practice, and look at initial plans preparing for a review. We will also explore the database fundamentals essential to systematically searching the literature. 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

This workshop is the first of a set of three; participants are strongly encouraged to attend all sessions.
