Exploring the Background to the Topic
As noted in the last section, if you can establish a clear introduction to your work, explaining why your dissertation is of importance, then you have made a good start. Section 3 thus develops your work further by providing guidance on how to ensure that both you and the reader are fully informed of the important issues in the area and whether any gaps in knowledge need to be addressed (specifically through effectively searching for and utilising literature), culminating in how to write your literature review chapter.
