The aim of this assignment is to focus on the problem statement. Clearly identify the problems or questions that will be the focus of the dissertation research, and present a peer-reviewed literature review that clearly supports the proposed topic as novel and significant.  Clearly identify the knowledge gap supported by current literature to exemplify the novelty of the proposed study. Use the literature to also describe the significance of the proposed study by underscoring how it will improve and impact the respective field. Discuss expected outcomes and how they are important to rectify conflicting literature or add to current knowledge.

Additional considerations to keep in mind while working on assignments:

Originality and Use of directly quoted material

      • The purpose of this assignment is for the student to demonstrate understanding and synthesis of the background material and key concepts. Accordingly, this must be accomplished substantially in the students own words.
      • Use directly quoted material sparingly and only when preserving the exact words of an author is necessary. For purposes of this course, rarely should directly quoted material represent more than 1 percent of the entire papers content. Composing a paper patched together from mostly quoted material is not acceptable.
      • Be sure to properly reference all directly quoted material and include the in-text citations.

Grades

      • A paper that answers all assignments questions and supports that same with good key points, well-supported discussions and quality references will earn a solid B grade.
      • Please remember that A papers are exceptional works that go beyond just answering the questions and provide insightful answers.

Also, note that earning As in previous courses does not guarantee an A in this course. This course requires high-level graduate extrapolation and synthesis communicated through high-level writing and presentation.
