Frequently students confuse literature reviews with summaries of existing research, and they can easily get overwhelmed by the amount of material they have to consider and filter as part of their review. Likewise, they don't often realize that a considered, planned, structured and balanced argument forms the bedrock of a successful research project.

Students need more than YouTube. \n \n \n \n Titles in the Little Quick Fix series offer: \n \n \n * Visual, design-led learning \n \n \n * Clear, structured,
