Literature Review Analysis

Literature Review Analysis

As you saw in Week 8, when conducting a literature review, you first search the evidence, and then you appraise it. Then, you are ready to summarize the evidence that you uncovered, and then you can synthesize it.

This Assignment is Part 2 of the Assignment you submitted in Week 8. In Part 1 of this Assignment, you used the Walden library to conduct a literature review and appraised your results to select the highest quality and most appropriate and significant evidence. Now, you will take the recent (within the last five years), peer-reviewed articles you selected and write brief summaries of each of them, and then write a synthesis of all of them.
