How are you getting along with your literature review. I haven't really started the review yet, but I think I finally have my research problem worked out and have an idea in my head as to how I want to introduce and organize my literature review. Now I just have to narrow down my sources. Right now I have 23 (I think) to have a look at. I'm going to look at how students are using new literacies and how these can be used in the classroom to motivate reading and writing. There's just so much stuff -- which isn't entirely bad, but I don't have a lot of time. Think I might need a break tomorrow though. It's been a busy couple of days with marking and working on this assignment. Oh well, it always gets done.
