Revise literature review #3

Open gregmacfarlane opened 3 years ago

gregmacfarlane commented 3 years ago

I know we've been through this before, but it has been a while and the stakes are higher here.

There are a number of places in the literature review where the sentences just don't make sense. It is obvious that you are using the language that the authors themselves used in talking about their work, but it isn't clear that 1) you understand what they did, and 2) why it matters for your research. I'll give you specific comments tomorrow.

It might be helpful to read each section of your literature review aloud to a classmate or friend. They might not understand everything, but watching where they get lost (or where you get lost) will be a good indication that the paragraph needs to be clarified.

I think all of the content is there, and we have a better idea of where the gap is we are trying to explore. But the text needs to be more clear, and you need to know what you are talking about!
