Introduction to Chapter 2: Literature Review

Welcome to Chapter 2 of your research journey, where we delve into the intricate realm of literature
review. Embarking on a literature review is akin to navigating through a labyrinth of scholarly works,
theories, and concepts. It's a crucial chapter that lays the foundation for your research by
synthesizing existing knowledge, identifying gaps, and framing your study within the broader
academic discourse.

The Challenge of Writing a Literature Review


Undoubtedly, crafting a literature review presents its own set of challenges. It requires meticulous
attention to detail, critical analysis, and a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. As
researchers, we must sift through vast amounts of literature, ranging from peer-reviewed articles to
academic journals and books, to construct a cohesive narrative that contributes meaningfully to the
field.

Navigating Complexity
One of the primary hurdles in writing a literature review lies in navigating the complexity of existing
research. Each study offers unique insights, methodologies, and conclusions, making it imperative
for researchers to discern patterns, contradictions, and emerging trends within the literature.
Moreover, synthesizing diverse perspectives while maintaining coherence demands precision and
analytical prowess.

Identifying Gaps and Establishing Significance


Beyond summarizing existing literature, a well-crafted literature review illuminates gaps in
knowledge and identifies avenues for further exploration. It involves critically evaluating existing
research methodologies, theoretical frameworks, and empirical findings to discern areas where
additional inquiry is warranted. By doing so, researchers can position their study within the broader
scholarly landscape and underscore its significance.

Although there is ample support for the inclusion of stress in any model referring to job satisfaction,
its absence from the conceptual framework was not an oversight. The blended course still left some
rooms for improvement. An example would be to increase the number of units allocated for teaching

Therefore, the age intervals have to be uniform and easier to identify. Meanwhile, there are five
major external factors: the external job market, the extrinsic rewards (salary and benefits,
opportunities for advancement), research opportunities, teaching opportunities and other family
considerations. However, when courses are designed from their inception as online courses, the
classes significantly engage the learners and avail the students opportunity to succeed. For one, it
