1. Organize a plan. Have an outline, for which the best guide is the problem itself. Begin the discussion from a broad perspective and narrow to the specific problem.

3. Review the Literature; More important than what the study says is what you say about the study.
4. Establish the Relationship of the Literature to your Research Project This can be done by charting each study in relation to the problem or subproblem it addresses. Study carefully before beginning to write.
