 REVIEW OF RELATED
LITERATURE & STUDIES
Prepare the list and decide which ones
you will include in your review. Make
sure you have enough potential sources.
A good number to start with would be
10 to 15 references. While preparing
your list, you can start getting copies
of these materials by printout our copy
machines, or download them on your
USB, so that when your ready to read
them, they are already available.
 Review of related
literature & studies
 Selecting & Reviewing
Related Literature & Studies
From your working bibliography and
stored copies of materials, choose which
ones are closely related to your study and
read them for your review of related
literature and studies.
A review of Related Literature And
Studies is helpful in knowing the ideas of
others interested in the research
question, similar or related to study you
are undertaking in order to find out if it
is original work or merely an extension of
work done a long time ago.
This will enable you to narrow down your
study to a specific well defined
manageable problem.
Related Literature consists of
discussion of facts and principles to which
your study is related. These materials are
usually found in books, encyclopedias,
journals, magazine, and newspapers from
printed or online sources. If printed in the
Philippines, they are local; if printed
outside the country, they are foreign
regardless of the citizenship of the
author.
Related inquiries, investigations,
researches already conducted to which
your proposed study is related or has
some bearing. They are usually
unpublished materials such as
manuscripts, theses and dissertations.
They are local if the inquiry was done
in the Philippines; foreign, if done
outside of the country.
•Three things must be done in a review.
 1. It should make a
critical evaluation of
the studies and
examine the
appropriateness of their
research design to
present study
2.It should show how
the methodology of
the previous study is
replicated, modified,
or improved in the
present study.
3.It should show
how the present
study will contribute
to existing literature
and studies.
 The Review of Related Literature
and Studies was mentioned in this
lesson~ its importance in any research
undertaken, the distinction between
literature and studies, and between
foreign and local ones.
In writing Review of Related Literature
and Studies, you need to classify each
into foreign and local. Foreign Literature
is first discussed, followed by Local
Literature; and then Foreign Studies
followed by Local Studies.
At the end o each section, do not
forget to show how materials are relate
to your study, the differences as well
as the similarities between your work
and yours. At the end of this chapter,
state how the materials reviewed
contributed to the preparation of your
research.
Minimum of 10 and maximum of 15
pages are required in undergraduate
theses and maximum of 20 pages for
graduate studies.

LITERATURE
Shiela Allan (2012) in her article “POSITIVE
IMPACT OF INTERNET ON COMMUNICATION
SKILLS”, discussed that Internet is a powerful tool
that is revolutionizing children’s learning,
communication, and play. If properly used, the
Internet can serve as a medium for acceptable
social interaction. The Internet allows children to
socialize with other children through the use of E-
Mail , chat rooms, and instant messaging,
increasing the development of communication and
social skills. As a children use internet with places
around the world and exchange mail with electronic
pen pals, they are able to share different cultures
and traditions.
This literature is closely related
to the current study for it
directly mentions the role of
internet specifically websites to
enhance the individuals’
communication and social skills.
The present study like the
article reviewed aims to
establish a connection on the
various websites used by
students and their impact on
their communication skills.
Local literature

The NNN-AMIC Special Report of

Lara P. Lina (2012) revealed that the
Philippines is experiencing 75% mobile
penetration. One –fifth of its
population can also be found online.
That means more than 24,000,000
Filipinos are able to log into their
Facebook, Twitter, Friendster, and
Plurk accounts regularly. The Filipino’s
familiarity and mastery over English
language could be the reason
Philippine online popularity.
