28 Mar Use the literature-review outline you prepared i
Use the literature-review outline you prepared in Week Five included as an attachment— to create a literature review of at least 2500 words (not including title, abstract, and reference pg) that supports the topic and the research study you have proposed. Take into consideration your instructor’s feedback on your literature-review outline as you begin this assignment. In your literature review, make sure to:
- Group information sources together according to their theme or point of view; start with general ideas and progress to specific conclusions, providing logical transitions between one theme and another.
- Synthesize and summarize information across sources, don’t merely report on one source after another in a serial fashion.
- Identify trends and patterns across the sources, as well as similarities and differences in the findings or conclusions of the sources; note inconsistencies in the studies you found.
- Point out studies that are of notable importance or relevance to the understanding of your topic.
- Identify study methodologies, populations included in research studies, and strengths and weaknesses of various sources.
- Discuss how the literature addresses your research topic and how it supports the need for a study that would answer your research question.
- Focus the review on sources that are relevant and directly related to your topic of interest and avoid sources that are only peripherally related to your topic.
- Use contemporary sources (those published within the past 5 to 10 years), and include older sources when those sources are necessary to develop an understanding of the topic; identify seminal or foundational studies as such.
- Make clear and concise conclusions about the topic and the relevance of a study to answer your research question, based on the content of the literature review.
- Cite sources within the literature review and in the reference list, following APA guidelines.
Incorporate at least 20 different sources (15 included already) into your literature review, including articles from academic and professional journals and information from institutional, organizational, and governmental agency sources. Include title, abstract, and reference pgs
Feedback From Instructor
These are great bullets and you already wrote a paragraph for a lot of them! That was great that you did that to give context, outline the themes, talk about the gaps, etc. You will tie it all together in Wk 6 now. Make sure to label your sections appropriately so they line-up as good, succinct and meaningful titles in the table of contents. So, you will have section heading and sub-section headings. The outline headings are the table of contents. I see where you started and where it ended with the way you laid it out. Thanks for breaking down the key points in a way that you can work from for your final paper. Nice work putting together 15+ references. The only thing to improve on is to add the correct APA 7E formatting and DOI URLs when possible. This is a good start for your project and will give you a good head start on your dissertation or ADP. I look forward to your full literature review. Good outline, go ahead and write your paper up now, and make sure to break it all up into APA sections that will transfer well to a table of contents.

Literature Review Outline
1. Introduction
0. The purpose of this potential mixed-method or qualitative study is to examine the how work from home mandate helped or hurt business continuity. Azadegan et al., (2020), describes business continuity as the process of creating prevention and recovery systems to deal with potential threats to an organization. In 2020, the world experienced an unexpected factor that interrupted the continuity of many businesses. As a current federal employee, I can first-hand attest to the changes in our business continuity, for my organization has now exceed two years of continuously working from home, since the start of the pandemic in March 2020.
0. I intend to explore the research topic of : How working from home during the COVID- 19 pandemic has affected the business continuity of federal organizations.COVID-19 is considered to be a pandemic changed everything across the entire world. This pandemic has left a huge portion of the workforce not able to either commute to their workstation, in order to strive towards mitigating the spreading of the virus. This has led to employees and also their employers trying to find out new work arrangements alternatives, more so within a city that is fast paced. As a result of the pandemic, most of the workers had to start working from home. Therefore, the option to work from home has turned out to be long-term mandate priority for most federal organizations. The research conducted on working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic will provide critical results on whether the work arrangement will continue being a transitory element that will be responding to the circumstances that are exceptional it if it might be an arrangement that is permanent (Bao et al., 2020).
1. Key Points
1. Work/Life Balance
1. Individuals More Likely to Work from Home
1. Study 1 (Gender)
1. Study 2 (Income)
1. Study 3 (Personality)
1. Mental Health with Working from Home
2. Study 4 (Positive effects)
The social isolation has, on most occasions, been placed forward as the major disadvantage when it comes to remote working with effects that are more serious in case of remote working that is full time as it to a great extent curtails opportunities amidst the workers for social interaction (Tripathi & Bagga, 2020).
2. Study 5 (Negative effects)
1. Importance of Research Question
2. Workplace Continuity/Production- increases productivity and leads to healthier lifestyles.
2. Retainability of Employees
2. Telework or Work from Home Success
1. Identified Gaps in Literature
3. Increased Cybersecurity Risks
3. Resolving Technical Challenges
3. Employee Isolation – 29% of remote employees have reported struggle with work-life balance, and 31% said they have needed to take a day off for their mental health (Ansong & Boateng, 2018).
1. Conclusion
4. What are the contributions of this literature to the field? The contribution of this study will provide results of how working from home affected the continuity of federal workplaces, weather good or bad, this will provide information for organizations in the future, if ever faced with a world changing pandemic.
4. What are the overall strengths? The strengths of this study will come from the participant data that will be collected. Working from home enables one to have an environment that is a lot quieter which is capable of facilitating work that is more focused (Chi et al., 2021).
4. What are the overall weaknesses? With the quantitative data approach, it is the information that is in a position to get quantified. Therefore, within this research, the results that will be obtained will be quite objective in nature, making them to be accurate (Allan, 2020)
4. What might be missing? The information that is missing from existing literature so far is if teleworking or working from home will become the ‘norm’ in the future. Data is so raw right now that it’s hard to say.
4. What are some next steps for research? It is probable that the COVID-19 most obvious impact on the labor force is the dramatic increment in the workers operating remotely (Tripathi & Bagga, 2020). It’s been estimated that by 2025, there could be at least 70% of employees will have the opportunity to work from home (Barrero et al., 2021).
