Items to include are outlined as follows:

The literature review should:
Explore common themes, assumptions, or approaches in the sources you cover;
Assess common weaknesses or limitations in the sources you cover;
Identify implications of your Literature Assessment for your future research.
Are there common sources you see cited across this literature that seem to be highly influential and worth your attention?
Are there common conclusions in this literature about future research that might be warranted?
Are there common errors or oversights that may need to be corrected?
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
