Assignment Description: Literature Review (200 Points) Due 6/17
The Literature Review for this course is to present, organize, and discuss information learned
from published empirical research reports on a chosen topic. Literature reviews are often based
on earlier annotated bibliographies, as in this course.
Quotations (with citations in APA style) from some references should be included, especially
when authors state points clearly or memorably, but the Lit review should not be a series of
quotations strung together. The final paper should list references in APA style, including all
cited (and no uncited) sources. Organize the Lit review thematically using headings to announce
the topics or themes to be discussed; do not summarize each source serially (i.e. author by
author). Example:
