(Only 1 copy per group to be uploaded) A Literature Review on the Trimester topic - topic will be provided in class and via Moodle - it will be the same topic used as the basis of Assessment 2. The literature review gives students the opportunity to study an assigned topic in depth. It requires students to find relevant sources of information that will enable them to write a comparative analysis from an informed point of view. This will help students to develop writing and information literacy skills. The assessment will require students to identify 2 or 3 main points of interest about the Trimester Topic. Students should find a minimum of 2 sources per group member (4 for a group of 2, 6 for a group of 3, 8 for a group of 4), at least some of which must be peer reviewed articles, relating to the points they have identified about the Trimester Topic. Using their sources which may agree and/or disagree with those points, students should compare and contrast what the different sources say about the points and draw conclusions. A brief evaluation of the sources should be included in the discussion. Using the annotated bibliography from Assessment 2 may be a good place to start finding the additional sources. It is important to note that the purpose of this assignment is to review what different authors say about the topic/points of interest. More detail about the assessment will be provided in class and via Moodle.
