Description of task

This task requires students to work individually. 

A literature review is an evaluative report of studies found in the literature related to a selected area. The review should describe, summarize, evaluate and clarify this literature. You should select a limited number of works that are central to the area rather than trying to collect a large number of works that are not as closely connected to the topic area. A literature review goes beyond the search for information and includes the identification and articulation of relationships between the literature and your particular field of research.
