knowledge?
• Why does this gap need filling?
• Rationale for undertaking this study

Literature review
A directed search of published work including periodicals and books that

• findings
Methodology or Experimentation
“In thesis or dissertation you will have to discuss the methods you used to do your research. The methodology chapter

Impact factor and citation
Impact factor
“Measure of the average number of citation

in the journal during the two preceding years”.
Formula to measure impact factor:
IF=number of citation in year

this year
citation
“A citation is way of giving credit
to individuals for their creative
and intellectual works that we
