Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to enable graduate students to systematically review and derive meaning from the literature in line with their research questions.
Course Content
The focus is on topics and skills such as students formulating a research question, clarifying what type of research they will focus on in the literature, correctly scanning databases, including or excluding studies according to specified criteria, then analyzing the included studies in detail, and finally reaching a synthesis of the studies obtained. The guide followed in the process was determined as PRISMA.
Course Precondition
