Literature Review: Women Issue
Literature Review: You are required to select a feminist issue/question and produce a five page literature review on the topic. A literature review is an analysis (rather than a summary) of scholarly articles that answer a research question. A literature review will help the reader understand background information on your subject, why the subject is important and identify themes and/or gaps in research. As this is formal research writing, your final submission must include a title and reference page in addition to the five page paper. A grading rubric will be provided for the final submission. You are required to submit the paper in two stages: Stage 1: Topic, Sources and Draft: Submission of issue/question that your research is designed to explore/answer. A reference page (in APA style) listing the eight peer reviewed journal articles (published within the last six years) that you will use to complete your analysis. Two page draft submission. (20 points) Remember, for a journal article source to count for this assignment, it must be scholarly, meaning that it is peer-reviewed, and published no earlier than 2013. There are many, many articles available online through databases held by the UNC Charlotte library. Websites, textbooks, podcasts, etc. will not count.
