Let us point out right from the start that a critical literature review is a task that many students hate completing. First, it is rather time-consuming work. Second, it is also a bit nervous too, because evaluating works written by some scholars who seem to be much smarter than you are is confusing a little.
 
Making critical reviews of literature on various subjects is one of the typical college assignments, by the way. Besides, it will be an obligatory part of your graduate project. This is why forget about some confusing feelings you might have and learn how to prepare a critical literature review.
 
Basic guidelines for making critical literature reviews

• As a rule, professors ask to make reviews 20-30 pages long;
• They also ask to use not less than 15 sources in a critical literature review;
• Finally, professors expect you to show some very important skills like critical thinking, an ability to analyze information, etc.

How to evaluate scientific works critically
 
Probably, this is the main question you have about making critical literature reviews. How exactly should you criticize and evaluate scholarly works? Are there some criteria you can use? Certainly, such criteria exist, and we have listed them below.
 
Author of the work
 
Your evaluation of the work should start with its author. Is it a reputable scholar whose name is recognized in the academic community? What are his/her previous works? If you know nothing about the author, perhaps this work should not be included into your critical literature review.
 
Content of the work

How long is a thesis or dissertation going to be or what is an average thesis or dissertation length? This is one of the main questions students have when they decide whether to start working on a project or no. If you still do not have a clear answer, let us help you find it. So, let us talk about an average thesis or dissertation length.
 
Is the word “average” really appropriate?
 
Probably, the main thing we should figure out is whether such notion as an average thesis or dissertation length really exists. The point is that in the academic community they prefer to use something like “minimal/maximum required number of pages/number of words”. Everything that lies between “minimum/maximum” is considered an average thesis or dissertation length. In other words, this means that your project can be from 50 up to 300 pages long, or sometimes even longer.
 
What an average thesis or dissertation length depends on?
 
An average thesis or dissertation length depends on many factors. First of all, it depends on the specific requirements of your faculty. Second, thesis or dissertation length depends greatly on a discipline and your thesis subject. Generally, it is considered that projects in Humanities and Social Sciences are much longer that those in Natural Sciences. For instance, we know cases when projects in theoretical Physics or Maths were just 40 pages long.

English dissertations: how to find a good one
 
First, keep in mind that you should use all English dissertations you find as samples, writing models only – plagiarism is a very serious issue that can bring you big troubles. However, in order to use such English dissertation as a sample, you should make sure the source of your paper is trustworthy. The consequences of using an example of dubious quality can be dire. Thus, check where to look for reputable dissertations in English and what to beware of.
 
The first place to search for a high quality academic dissertation in English is a scholarly website. Such websites offer only the best papers of former students and are the most credible sources due to their unfailing reputation. But there is a possibility that you will not find an English dissertation within your research field (that covers your topic).
 
There are plenty of websites that provide sample papers, information about dissertation format, structure, etc. But not all of them can be trusted. To make sure their papers are worth paying attention to, browse the Web and search for reviews and testimonials. Mind the origins of a website – if you search for a dissertation in English, certainly you do not want to find samples of Kenyan or Philippine origins.

We should note this right from the start that a cover page for research papers is not the most important element of the paper as well as it is not the obligatory part of the project. Every teacher has own requirements for cover pages of research papers, their organization, content, etc.
 
That is why before you start making a cover page for your research paper, make sure that a teacher actually asks you for one. Also, check whether your teacher has provided some specific instructions on how your cover page for the research paper should be arranged.
 
It is also important to remind that the way your cover page for the research paper will look like depends on the format you have to use in the rest of your project. In MLA papers, students do not have to make cover pages for research papers. All information about its author, instructor, course, etc. should be presented on the first page, in the upper left-hand corner.
 
There are specific rules you should be aware of and stick to when it comes to preparing a cover page for a research paper done in APA format. You have to make a separate title page. For more details, it is better to check the APA style manual.
 
We would like to explain you some simple rules of preparing a cover page for research papers if its format is not specified.
