1. How has writing a literature review effected the way you might do research in the future? 

It will change the way I outline my future work.  I will need to make sure I am looking for one type of answer.  When trying to write my literature review, I was semi confused with the examples of what should be included (theories, and major themes).  I sort of feel I needed a topic that was more singular, at least that is the way I described it.  I now feel like my topic was too broad because it was difficult to find parallel themes, or similar arguments.  I was researching how to become something, and having so much information that would come together, but in a steps sort of way, and not in a comparison way, made it difficult. 

2. Did you find any part of the literature review writing process difficult?

After reading the supplemental information and watching the videos I do not think it would be extremely difficult, but again, I think I struggled with having such broad information. 

3. How has your understanding and knowledge of the topic of your research question expanded due to the analysis you did in writing your literature review? 

I wouldn’t say it was expanded.  I tried to find similarities and themes, and only a couple of times, could I see similar ideas among information and authors. 

4.   What questions do you feel are still left unanswered about your research (it is alright to still have unanswered questions, since research is an ongoing endeavor)? 

I do believe I have a good foundation for the process and I answered many of my own questions in regards to the steps to take.  Of course there are things left unanswered and I could continue the research.
