Take your topic, start reading the science. Find a gap in the knowledge. Identify the things that are important to that knowledge (a mind map helps here). Now start looking up everything you can on those things, whittling the essential information down to a sentence or two. Put it together in a paper.

Find out if your school can get you a bibliography manager. A 10 page lit review can easily reach a few dozen citations.

Google (Scholar) is your friend. If the abstract is relevant to the subject, save the paper for future consumption and pick another from the reference section. After you've got a few, skim through them and note down common themes. Use common theme keywords to find more papers. Rinse. Flush. Repeat. Once satisfied, read the papers more thoroughly and produce a draft. You might need to return to the search phase if new topics crop up. Finally, edit the draft into a proper paper.

if this is a science class:
tell your teacher to fuck off because /lit/ is not /sci/
