M1SP1+Semester+Project+Phase+2+Literative+Review

Based on your approved project topic, each team member will find 4 or 5 related articles to help give support to the project issues, related real world problem, inquiry methodology, or proposed measurement techniques. Then the team will assimate all of this individual work together to create a literture review. Be sure to use APA Style 5th Edition. The main purposes for a literture review is to support and strengthen your inquiry logic as well as to present to your audience a case that your questioning is significant, important, and relevant to the real world problem(s). The lit review establishes what is already “out there” on your topic, it helps help you see what DON’T you know, as well as sheding light on similar areas or topics that might be more appropriate. Another key purpose is to help you develop solid research questions (the next phase in the semster project). A lit review is carried out to help frame your inquiry ideas.The lit review should give credibilty to your issues, purpose, rationale, and methods. The following questions should be considered when deciding what literature is important to include in your lit review. Also these questions give you a logical framework for writing the lit review. • How do my selected articles support framing the problem? • Do my articles provide evidence that my inquiry topic (problem) is important or has importance? • Did I learning anything that I didn’t know? Explain. • Did I confirm anything that I already knew? Explain. • Did your search explain any new and/or divergent ways of thinking about the topic? • Did your search ground your ideas in current efforts by others? • Are you proposing a study or methods that have already been carried out by others? If so, how unique are your efforts? Can you justify the need to conduct your study? The lit review document will have two parts: 1) team summary of the lit review and 2) individual documentation. Team summary will bring all of the individual efforts together. The team summary will need to have the following: Brief Phase Deliverable: 1) description for how the team carried out this task. 2) List the most relevant articles selected from the team efforts 3) Address the questions poised earlier. Be sure to use citations for your claims. (These questions are the same for the individual documentation below.) Individual documentation will have the following: 1) Brief description of the search strategy including search databases and key term used for searching 2) List of 4 or 5 relevant articles 3) Response to the questions posed earlier.
