Assignment
Evolved since you turned into your outline, it is OK to deviate from what you submitted in your outline last week! You are encouraged to:
• Use headings within your literature review to guide the reader through your thoughts as you summarize the key points you want to make.
• Be scholarly, but don't use overcomplicated language. Be direct. Do not use colloquial expressions, and do not use first person (e.g., "I," "me," "my").
• Do not simply write a paper that brings the reader through a summary of what you read article-by-article (like mini article critiques). Instead, each paragraph should be about a different point you want to make about your topic and what the combined literature demonstrates about that point. Expect to use multiple citations in each paragraph.
• Take a look at the introduction for the article you critiqued if you are unsure how to write your literature review. Notice how their literature review is focused on topics and a synthesis of others' research and theory. Model your structure, tone, and "flow of thoughts" after theirs. Also, note how the authors have used citations and where they are placed.
• Create a References page that only uses references (not annotations). Be sure that your page lists your references in the proper order and that formatting and punctuation are correct.
Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
1. The answer should be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
2. The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
3. Also include a reference page. The Citations and references should follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
