8. • A literature review is part of the published work
referencing related research, theory, and
background information
• A review of the literature (literature search) may
be conducted to…
• understand a topic
• help you form a research question
• provide confirmation of an already existing
hypothesis
• analyze and interpret your own data
• gain exposure to past, current, and ongoing
research about a subject you are exploring
for research of your own
REVIEWING LITERATURE

9. PEER
REVIEW
 A process for establishing
authority of scholarly research
 Experts in the field/discipline
review the original ideas to certify
the accuracy, validity, and value
of the results

18. • Determine your research question1
• Identify the key concepts2
• List alternate keywords, synonyms, and related words3
• Join terms and concepts with appropriate Boolean operators4
• Make use of database’s limiters & suggested subject terms5
• Organize and cite your sources6
SEARCH PROCESS

19. One
• What are some ways artificial intelligence is used to
prevent or solve crimes?
Two
• How is artificial intelligence used to solve or prevent
crimes of spoofing, phishing, identity theft,
malware, and in facial recognition and surveillance?
Three
• In what ways is artificial intelligence developed to
recognize faces for use in surveillance to prevent or
solve crimes?

23. CONTROLLED VOCABULARY
(ALSO CALLED “TAXONOMY” OR “HIERARCHY” OR
“THESAURUS”)
• A list of terms and term relationships designed to
o organize information about similar subjects
o assist content authors in consistently classifying/tagging
content
o enable users to find the information they need by
translating their language into the language of the
information store.
