Ask the learners to read the article:
MANILA, Philippines — Doris Magsaysay-Ho calls the shipping industry a man’s world.
Despite this, she is CEO of the Magsaysay Group, which is involved in providing shipping, logistics
and human resource services.
Her father Robert Ho, who founded the company, always believed that his three daughters and
two sons had the same leadership potential and entrepreneural ability, and gave each his support
and encouragement.
But juggling many hats as a divorced woman with three small children during the early stages of
her career was not easy.
When Doris doubted whether a woman could be as effective in business environment dominated
by males, her father told her, ‘Doris, don’t try to be who you’re not because you will fail. Just be
what you are.’”
Watching her daughter, Alexandra Cecala, struggle between work, her husband and four small
children, inspired Doris to embark on a project to develop a course on the Management and
Leadership Development for the Family, together with Boots Garcia, Julia Abad, and Marcel
Pangilinan-Arenas who led the Philippine Business Coalition for Women Empowerment, with
Magsaysay as the pilot.

IMMERSE

Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills (Explain)

Discuss that literature review
➢ is an academic text that provides an overview of a particular topic.
➢ helps identify what is known and not known about a certain subject of study.
➢ involves the use of higher order thinking skills. Such as the review, evaluation,
and synthesis of several scholarly works.
A literature review is a search and evaluation of the available literature in your given subject or
chosen topic area. It documents the state of the art with respect to the subject or topic you are
writing about.

Jason S. Napa
 WEEKLY LEARNING PLAN
A literature review has four main objectives:
It surveys the literature in your chosen area of study
It synthesizes the information in that literature into a summary
It critically analyses the information gathered by identifying gaps in current knowledge by
showing limitations of theories and points of view and by formulating areas for further research
and reviewing areas of controversy
It presents the literature in an organized way.
A literature review shows your readers that you have an in-depth grasp of your subject; and that
you understand where your own research fits into and adds to an existing body of agreed
knowledge. Here’s another way of describing those four main tasks. A literature review:
• demonstrates a familiarity with a body of knowledge and establishes the credibility of
your work;
• summarizes prior research and says how your project is linked to it;
• integrates and summarizes what is known about a subject;
• demonstrates that you have learnt from others and that your research is a starting point
for new ideas.

Making Generalizations and abstraction about the lesson (Elaborate)

Discuss further that it is an integral part of any research paper and it serves several functions
such as:
a. establishes the relevance of the study
b. further helps in establishing the research gap
c. provides important information about your topic and concepts related to it
d. presents the contradiction between and among previous literature
e. justifies your research methodology as its effectiveness may be determined by a survey

IMMERSE

Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills (Explain)

Benefits of a Good Literature Search
a. It will prevent you from duplicating work that has already been done.
b. By synthesizing information from previous studies, you will be able to provide a stronger
background, justification, and discussion of your own study.
c. Relevant studies can provide valuable insights and tips to make your own study better,
such as the best methodology or data analysis methods to use.
d. You will be able to find gaps and weaknesses in the existing research and thereby come
up with useful and meaningful research questions.
e. You will become familiar with terminologies in your field by using and finding suitable
keywords.

Discuss to the class sample review of

literature format.

Jason S. Napa
 WEEKLY LEARNING PLAN
Define your keywords

It is very important to use targeted keywords. Break up the topic you are researching into its
main concepts, then define keywords for each concept. Next, expand the list by writing down
synonyms and alternative phrasings for each keyword. Also, use terms that you plan to include
in your own manuscript; this will indicate how relevant those terms are in the field or whether
you should use more precise terms to define your concepts.
Checklist for defining keywords
• What alternative vocabulary is used in discussion of my topic?
• Are there American and British variants of spelling or vocabulary?
• Can I identify a word-stem for truncation? E.g., child$ to find child, children, or childish.
• Are common abbreviations, acronyms or formulae used?
• What specific cases or examples am I interested in?
• What more general terms might include my topic?
• Are there categories I'd like to exclude?

Start your search

You might need to search several academic databases to make sure you’ve covered all bases. Since
each database has unique sources for obtaining data and unique processes for deciding which
journal articles to index, limiting your search to only one database may cause you to overlook
relevant articles. For example, if you restrict your search to Elsevier’s Science Direct, you are very
likely to miss relevant publications, since this database mostly indexes journals published by
Elsevier.

Sources for searching

Jason S. Napa
 WEEKLY LEARNING PLAN
Follow the citations
Once you have identified some relevant journal articles, an easy way to find more studies is by
looking through the reference lists of these articles (backward searching). The reference studies
are likely to be quite relevant for you as well. In addition, look at the papers that have cited the
articles since they were published (forward searching). This will help you find the newer studies
that have built upon the work.

Keep a written record of your searches

Note down the names of journals that you come across often during your searches. Over time,
you will get a good idea of which journals are most prominent in your field and which journals
you should consider publishing in. In addition, keep a list of the keywords and keyword
combinations that return the best results. This will not only reduce the time taken for future
searches but also yield a list of terminologies that are common in your field.

Use a references manager

With the huge number of studies you will probably have to sift through and track, manual
compilation of references is no longer an option. Use a reference manager like Endnote
(purchase required) or Zotero (free). Reference managers allow you to download and save
papers in your computer’s library directly from journal websites with just one button click. They
also make it very easy to organize your library and compile reference lists. Although these
programs may be difficult to use initially, skimming through their help manual or video tutorial
along with a few days of learning through trial and error are all that’s required to become
comfortable with them. In case you find yourself too busy, you can also take help from
professional publication services, for example, Editage's Literature Search Service.

Keeping up with literature

A large number of databases and publishers provide one or more of the following alerts
features: Table-of-Contents (TOC) alerts, citation alerts, and keyword alerts. These alerts are
very useful for keeping up with newly published papers and research topics. With many alert
services, you receive alerts in the form of emails listing the title and authors of newly published
papers, and sometimes even abstracts.

IMMERSE

Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills (Explain)

Discuss the Common Characteristics of Good Synthesis Matrices.
1. Limitation. Good matrixes limit the amount of information yo have to work with to write
in your paper. In fifteen-page article, maybe only a few paragraphs pertain to your
research question. Don’t bother highlighting or writing down the rest of the information.
On your matrix make note only on the ideas that address your research question, which
you will write at the top of your matrix as a reminder to keep yourself on track.
2. Comparison. Besides limiting the number of ideas and the amount of text, the placement
of notes on your matrix will give you a bird’s eye view of how the authors’ ideas. By
labeling the ideas that pertain to your question, you can see where the authors agree and
disagree and where the other authors ignored an idea may want to find out why. As you
fillout your matrix, themes will start to emerge: where do disagreements arise, which
ideas seem to gain consensus among authors, and so on.
Jason S. Napa
 WEEKLY LEARNING PLAN
3. Discovery. You can anticipate what ideas will emerge and level those in advance of your
reading. But do leave some blanks for surprise those times when authors bring up ideas
you haven’t thought about before.
What will you do with those “loner” insights, the ones mentioned by only one author? Are
they worth including as you attempt to provide a thorough answer to your question? How
will you decide?
4. Location. You will create a reference list as you read your articles. That is easy to do if
you keep track of citations as you find the sources in electronic databases or on the
internet. When you are finished, remove from the reference page any articles you did
not cite. If you place page numbers in the matrix boxes along with your notes, you will
never have to search twice for the supporting evidence you want to cite.

It is important that your literature review has a logical structure such as :

1. Chronological organization
2. The “Classic” studies organization
3. Topical or thematic organization
4. Inverted pyramid organization
