Instructions for Assignments #3
A Literature Review of three (3) texts (be it journal articles or chapters of a book that specializes on your topic) that have to do with your research topic.
Due on May/10/2016
Review should be one (1) page long or at least a minimum of one paragraph. You don’t have to use up a whole page per review (that might proof to be a tad wasteful in terms of quantity of paper): if there’s still enough unused space you can continue on with your next review in the same page (just leave at least a space between reviews). Before the reviews, at the top of the first page, there should be a brief section in which you state your research topic and your possible research problem. Now here’s a subtle but significant addition to the prior instructions: In assignment #3 you have to identify a possible theoretical framework or perspective
The purpose of the literature review for assignment #3 is that it should help you limit and identify a theoretical perspective or framework.
The three (3) reviews, following a Microsoft Word format, a letter size twelve (12) and a spacing of one and a half (1.5) between sentences (or line spacing in the paragraph options).
