An Introduction to Systematic Literature Review

In the fast-paced world of academia, staying up-to-date with the latest research and trends is crucial. Systematic Literature Review (SLR) has emerged as a powerful tool for researchers to navigate the vast sea of scholarly articles. To shed light on this invaluable method, Binus University organized an online workshop on September 12, 2023,featuring Dr. Yuli Eni, an expert in the field. This event, hosted by BINUS Corporate Learning & Development (BCLND) and the Research and Technology Transfer Office (RTTO), aimed to equip Binus University Faculty Members (Binus FM) with the skills and knowledge needed to harness the potential of SLR.

One of the highlights of the workshop was the introduction of VOSviewer, a cutting-edge software tool that allows researchers to visualize scientific landscapes. Dr. Yuli Eni demonstrated how VOSviewer can be utilized as an essential companion in the SLR process, enabling researchers to create visual representations of academic knowledge domains, identify key research themes, and track the evolution of research trends over time.

The introduction of VOSviewer was a game-changer for many attendees. This innovative software enables researchers to transform large volumes of textual data into meaningful visualizations, making it easier to identify patterns, connections, and research clusters within a particular field. Dr. Yuli Eni showcased how VOSviewer can be used to create co-authorship networks, citation networks, and keyword maps, allowing researchers to gain insights into the intellectual structure of a specific research area.

The online workshop hosted by Binus University, featuring Dr. Yuli Eni, M.M., served as a catalyst for promoting the importance of Systematic Literature Review in the academic world. It empowered Binus FM participants to conduct more rigorous and evidence-based research while introducing them to the remarkable capabilities of VOSviewer in visualizing scientific landscapes. As the research community continues to evolve, these tools and techniques will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in shaping the future of academia.
