Providing a Novel Perspective

You may be asked to provide a novel perspective of the primary literature related to your topic.

Reflect:

  • Where is there convergence/agreement?
    Where is there conflict?
    What are the strengths and weaknesses of the studies that have been done?
  • What gaps in knowledge around your topic did you notice when you were searching?
  • Was there something you thought you should be able to find but couldn't?

Look at article’s conclusion:

Does it state weaknesses of the study?
Does it propose potential areas for future research?

Your research question might change a bit or become more refined at this point!
