Principles of qualitative-meta analysis are employed to analyse the studies, and to identify purposes, methods, conclusions and implications. The results are used to prepare aggregated tables depicting the structure of the studies, and to bring to the fore any instructional guidelines that may be considered for teaching Shakespeare.
