My aim today is to write a piece of literature review - just confused at to whether I am still surveying or actually reviewing :-(: http://www.postgraduateforum.com/threadViewer.aspx?TID=17701

Moving from surveying to reviewing literature

Hugh 1264 posts

Hi all,

I am writing my first peice of literature review and could do with some help/advice :$ - I wonder if you guys have any tips on moving from surveying literature to reviewing it critically?

I am currently writing on a specific topic that I have reviewed first (background on what it is), I am then looking at what others have critically said about this topic and narrate that (which is still surveying). I will now add what I think is missing from this topic (has not been mentioned or downfalls). Is this the correct approach? I feel like I am not reviewing well enough. Should I also be critically reviewing the criticism of others?

Thanks all :-)

Working away and desk space

Quote From walminskipeasucker:

Chococake, as far as I'm aware you should be entitled to desk space at your university. They usually have post-grad offices available for PhD students.

I do have office space at my university, its just that I live far from the university. I was just wondering whether it would be possible to get office space at another university which is literally behind my home!

Quote From dunni73:

Not sure about spcifically desk space as such but I live 4-5 hours from my uni so work from home too. My library/IT access was limited to the digitalised facilities so I arranged access to these areas at my local uni. It was done through the SCONUL access system as both mine and the local unis were a part of this 'sharing facilities' system. The SCONUL system in UK and Ireland based so not sure if this helps you specifically. Is it possible for you to contact the local uni library facilities and ask them about desk space? You may need endorsement from your uni/sup so it is also worth talking to your sup about it too.

Thanks I will. Currently I haven't found anything, I'm still looking. Its just a bit pricey ...

Hi,

I currently work away from the university (at home) as I live 2 hours away from the university. I am looking into getting desk space near my home. Has anyone ever done that? Also, is there any possibility that the university in my city would be kind enough to give me desk space?

Thanks!

I would say if you find something in your interest area, and you have secured a place, then move over. However, do not move over unless you have secured a place. 6 months is a very short time, so it is not like you have wasted time.
