The structure of the draft Intro & Review sections is as follows (all double-space). The minimum lengths do not include figures and tables):
Introduction (1 pages minimum):
Provide background information and details concerning this topic that convey the importance and challenges of the issue.
Explain your reasoning for the methods (databases, search engines, etc.) you used to obtain literature.
Explain your reasoning for the methods (statistical, graphical, qualitative, etc.) you will use to analyze the results of the review.
Literature Review (7 pages minimum):
Provide a detailed review of literature concerning the topic.
When discussing the literature, try to group similar concepts together and then compare and contrast them with papers approaching the issue differently (e.g. financial versus human resources).
Include a variety of perspectives and viewpoints that thoroughly cover all aspects of the topic.
References (at least 10):
o List all references using the parenthetical citing method.
o Every reference within the body of the paper must have a corresponding entry in the reference list at the end of the paper and vice-a-versa.
Your draft Intro & Review sections must also have correct grammar, spelling, and must be written clearly and concisely with continuity in the presentation of your ideas. I will return your revision to those sections and supporting references (graded with feedback) between one to two weeks after its due date. My feedback will include citing examples of where you made certain types of errors such as spelling, grammar, format and structure. I will also include example suggestions on how to rewrite parts of your paper to be clearer and more concise with better continuity. It will be your responsibility to find and correct other similar instances of these types of errors and opportunities for improvement that must be incorporated into your final paper. In other words, just because I don't point out a mistake in your draft, it doesn't mean it will be acceptable in the final paper. You should have someone (friend, colleague, relative, classmate, etc.), that you think has good writing skills, read your paper to comment and make suggestions on it. The person does not need to know about project management. Actually, it will be a good indication that your paper is clearly written if such a person understands it.
