| Project - Written | 100 | 1~2~3~4 | Exam Period | , WORDS= 4000 | The summative assessment involves the development of a systematic Literature Review Protocol (3500 words) on your chosen research problem. The final assignment should be submitted with final abstract (500 words) (formative assessment) at the end of week 14.A well conducted literature reviews use systematic search methodology, such as pre-defined research questions; explicit methodology; appraisal and synthesis procedures to locate all the relevant evidence to determine if there is sufficient evidence-base to address the research question. The findings of the literature review can be used to aid decision-making for clinical practice and/or health policy or if there is a limited evidence base it can identify the “research gap” highlighting the need for further primary research. Writing this protocol allows you to discuss how you would go about conducting a systematic review and takes you through the research process. |
