Reference no: EM133718885
Case: A double-spaced literature review (between 3-7 pages) along with 2.) an updated bibliography (bibliography has no page limit). Remember this is one component of your proposal and you will expand and revise it as part of the next assignment (#3).
There should be a title to your review that succinctly captures your line of argument or the problem with the current state of knowledge in your field.
You should have a clear, logical outline to your essay, including section headings.
Your bibliography must be correct and consistent.
Your literature review should conclude with a single empirically-answerable Research Question, expressed in the form of a question. That question should be in bold face type. It is likely that at this stage your question will be rather broad.
Your review should also clearly show how the proposed research fits within the discipline of geography, either explaining that your "we" are geographers, or bringing a geographic perspective (cited) to bear on the literature. The first week's lectures should aid you.
Your literature review should not exceed 7 pages, double-spaced with standard one-inch margins and a standard 12-point font.
Pages should be numbered so that your T.A.s can make comments.
Be sure you have responded to your T.A.'s comments and feedback from Assignment #1.
For this course the TAs, Instructor, and Librarian have agreed on Harvard Style references. This is a very common reference system in the Social Sciences (of which Geography is a part), and reference aides like Zotero and Endnote can easily use it.
