Literature Review

[reyrey12]

Hi everyone, I will be popping popcorn-three brands and the measures being which brand has the most popped corn. As I am trying to bring all this together,
and at this point; in the Literature review section of my experiment I have to cite at least 2 other studies that I can summarize and draw a connection with these external studies and my study. My school recommended completed online (projects) studies found on Science Buddies site. I don't have a problem reviewing, summarizing and drawing a connection, but I don't know how to find them? I am bouncing around this site and I need find to some completed projects that I can compare/Contrast with my Popcorn popping Experiment. Thank You so much Raymond

Craig Bridge; Thank You so much for the direction in regards to my question on Relevance.

Hi!
It's great that your school recommends ScienceBuddies! To answer your question, I'm not sure that ScienceBuddies has projects that fit your specific criteria, so I went online and found a few projects that I think are similar to your project. Perhaps you can cite some of these studies and compare/contrast them with your experiment. I would be interested to know if your results are the same/different than these projects!

Hope this helps, best of luck!
