RE: Assignment 3 – Fifteen to Twenty References

Do a literature search using the NYU Online Library and Google Scholar Tools for your research question.

You will find many more references than you will include in your proposal. You will have to select the best ones that fit your topic. There should be at least 15 for a B, up to 18-20 for an A.

Under each APA reference statement add a copy of the abstract (see exemplar)

Under each reference add one or two lines of how this reference relates to your framed question and research topic. How does it contribute to your knowledge of the field and how will you use it to go about answering the research question?

Make sure to download a copy of each article, paper or other reference to your computer. Organize the references in your computer with a file structure by research area.

Create and submit a list of references with at least 15-20 high quality references. No web references. No Wikipedia, blogs or other web sourced materials. All scholarly articles, with references, government reports, large consulting houses reports or NGO reports. No news articles. No industry magazines.

Use the APA 7 style of reference documentation. Use the template below to list the references alphabetically.

A high number (B=8, A= over 10%) academic journals

A high number (B=8, A= over 10%) recent, written in the last 10 years, since 2010

Use this template:
