Preliminary Dissertation References Assignment Instructions

Instructions

The reference list will serve as the foundation on which to develop your literature review for your dissertation in the future. It must contain at least 100 sources related to your dissertation topic. Here is what you need to submit:

· One annotated sample citation:

· APA citation

· Main focus

· Research design

· For example: survey, randomized control group study, phenomenological qualitative study, etc.

· If a review or theoretical article/chapter/dissertation, label this as Review or Theory article/chapter/dissertation

· Citable Units/Key findings

· What are 2-3 main findings from the article?

· A meaningful quotation(s) from the source if appropriate

· Key words

· Followed by your reference page with APA citations only for the remaining sources, include the total number of sources at the end of your citations. One hundred meets the assignment requirement, but you will likely have more for your dissertation.
