Instructions

Please use 12-point Times New Roman or Calibri font and double spacing for your assignment. The page should also have one-inch margins. Please include your references.

Part of your goal in a literature review is to paraphrase (https://eee.uci.edu/faculty/strenski/research/paraphrase.html) the research of other scholars. For this assignment, you should consider potentially relevant research for your project (it is okay if you do not end up using these sources later). Please also check this page, which will outline some important information for this assignment and the final project: An Important Note on Paraphrasing

It is also helpful to refer to:

Notes on Literature Review and Research

And this demonstration from our optional Week 4 meeting.

Requirements

Please take three (3) to five (5) peer-reviewed academic sources (https://www.angelo.edu/services/library/handouts/peerrev.php) that should be at least somewhat related to your final project (remember, it is okay if this changes and if they are not exactly related). Using paragraph format, practice your paraphrasing and putting the articles "in conversation" with each other as demonstrated in this week's video on your assignment and the above note on

paraphrasing. You should paraphrase while also writing about something. How do the articles link? What do they have to say in relation to each other?

You should only need one to two sentences per article, focusing on their major points and how they interact (is there agreement? Disagreement?). That will make your assignment approximately 1/2 to 1 page in length.
