PRESENTING WRITTEN REVIEW OF LITERATURE

WHAT’S MORE
Directions: When writing about previous studies and your own thinking, it is important
to clearly distinguish between: that which is certainly true, that which is only probably
true, and that which is only possibly true. Evaluate the following statements when
writing a review of related literature whether these can be categorized as certainly true,
probably true, or possibly true. Use separate sheet of paper.
_______________ 1. Tyacke and Mendelsohn’s (1986) diary study showed that lower-
level students always depended far more on their teacher and on
grammar rules than higher-level students.
_______________ 2. Politzer (1983) demonstrated that females used social learning
strategies substantially more often than males.
_______________ 3. Research suggests that higher-level students may use more
effective foreign language learning strategies than students with
lower ability.
_______________ 4. Lever believes that their differences in strategies could be due
to the way that these individuals gained their language skills
rather than age.
_______________ 5. Politzer and McGroarty (1985) report the possible importance of
language learning goals.
_______________ 6. The findings clearly show that in typical language learning
situations women will use more learning strategies than men.
_______________ 7. According to several researchers, it seems that language
students use different strategies as they progress.
_______________ 8. Many researchers assume that the learner’s level of motivation
is likely to influence the choice of strategies.
_______________ 9. It is a fact that highly motivated learners can learn languages
more rapidly and effectively.
_______________ 10. We hypothesize however that after strategy training, men and
women will both show strategy strengths.
_______________ 11. Gender differences in strategy use might be explained by
differences in communicative preferences.
_______________ 12. We speculate that the problem was low motivation for language
learning.
_______________ 13. These gender differences might be explained by differences in
communication preferences.
_______________ 14. Gender appears to exert a strong influence on strategy choice.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
Directions: Read and understand the given sample of a written review of literature
below. Complete the template that follows to come up with a critical evaluation of the
given literature. Don’t forget to discuss your answers on the next column right after
the guide questions. Do this on a separate sheet of paper.
Project Title : Investigating the Anti-bacterial Properties of Metal and Metal Oxide
Nanoparticles
Done by : Lim Jue Min, Jeremy (4N07)
In recent years, there has been growing interests and investments in research on
nanomaterials, minuscule substances having at least one dimension within the nanometer
scale, including nanoparticles, nanowires and nanofilms (Cao, 2006). At the nanometer scale,
these materials exhibit vastly different physical and chemical properties from their bulk
materials: crystals in the nanometer scale have much lower melting points, ferromagnetic
materials may lose their ferromagnetism when diminished to nanometer size, semiconductors
become insulators and vice versa, solids become liquids at room temperature and pressure,
and inert chemicals like gold become excellent catalysts. In addition to these are biological
anti-bacterial properties. Nanomaterials have such amazing properties because of their high
proportion of surface atoms, in comparison to bulk materials. Thus, there are more atoms at
the surface with unsaturated bonds, capable of taking part in interactions.
9
Given the high toxicity of silver nanoparticles on bacteria, there are extensive
biological, biomedical, and pharmaceutical applications (Sondi & Salopek-Sondi, 2004) of
nanoparticles exhibiting antibacterial properties, including widespread products where
bacterial growth should be inhibited. The antibacterial activity of the nanoparticles may be
used in medicine to reduce infections in burn treatment, arthroplasty, to prevent bacteria
colonization on prostheses, catheters, vascular grafts, dental materials and dental resins, as
well as integration into textile fabrics, or even for water treatment (Panacek et al, 2006). In
addition, they can be incorporated into domestic and car airconditioner filters, floor drain traps,
shoe and insole lining, bandages or plasters, refrigerators, storage containers, and
antibacterial soaps, detergents or washing liquids.
