I am writing this blog without no sync from my previous posts. This is my hands on experience from a lesson learnt from this weekend. Every researcher would have come across the words “review”, “literature review”, “survey” , “literature survey”, “review of literature ”and so on. Most of them think it all means the same , and this is what I too thought until a week ago. But, it was a learning from one of the eminent professor.
Literature Survey Vs. Literature Review that’s how it needs to be understood. Every researcher needs to discern them before they proceed research papers . There is minor difference between them which needs attention.
Typical Survey paper deals only with the details of manuscripts which has been published over several years by many authors related to research work. It’s just an typical meaning of survey where we have collection of record of works related to our research . Here, we do not reveal or identify the gaps in research work for future study .
However, literature review is focused on development of methodology / concepts to the research work with its pros and cons. Here researcher has to provide or discuss the details : why Particular method can be used, what for it can be used, under what situation it can be used and why it cannot be used in few circumstances. Also, here the researcher has to contrast and compare the methods available in the literature . Further, it includes what could be the futuristic direction of the particular research work which can be explored. It means gap which can be identified and worked by other researchers in future.
Coinage of words are crucial for every researcher .
