Description
How do you keep from getting side tracked and looking at less relevant literature? Organization is important in writing, and organizing how you are going to write your literature review is equally important. Recall that a good starting point for organizing your literature review and keeping it focused is to have your research question at the beginning.
For this Discussion, you explain the purpose of organization in preparation for your writing and describe different techniques you developed to write your literature review.
