Question Description

Assignment 3: Review Paper—Draft of Literature Findings

Evaluate the evidence. Create a draft of the findings of the articles you have selected and how they contribute to our knowledge of this problem. Be sure to address each of the following items in your draft:

1.  Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each piece.
2.  If the articles talk to each other (that is, if they support or contrast with one another), explain how and why.
3.  What does the evidence tell us?
4.  Is there another possible explanation you can think of?  Based on what you have read, what is your hypothesis?  In other words, what is your explanation for the findings?
5.  How can you refine your question or topic even further, now that you have described the findings?

Your draft should be double-spaced and in 12 point, Times New Roman font with normal one-inch margins, written in APA style, and free of typographical and grammatical errors.  It should include a title page with a running head and a reference page. The body of the paper should be at least 5-6 pages in length. Submit your paper to the M2: Assignment 3 Dropbox by Wednesday, April 16, 2014.

You will submit your Review Paper next week, so be sure to incorporate the feedback you receive from your instructor on this assignment into your final paper for next week. You may also want to review the following documents that are available in the Doc Sharing area of the course:

  • A sample literature review,
  • a PowerPoint document illustrating how to set up your word processor for APA style
  • a “Guide for Writing a Literature Review”

If you have any questions about your paper, contact your instructor by posting in the Questions for the Professor or Problems & Solutions areas of the course.

Hi June,

I have given you feedback in the discussion along the same lines of what I am about to give you here.  I HIGHLY suggest you use Argosy's writing assistance.  Your writing is quite confusing in places, where I had to read some passages twice or more and still may not know what you are trying to convey.  There are also writing errors throughout.  Your stated thesis of your paper did not match the content.  There was no need to talk about melanomas at any length in a paper that was supposed to be about psychosocial issues with hemodialysis patients.  Before you submit your major paper this coming week, please seek out writing assistance.

That was his comment for this paper. I must say I have to agree with him. Just let me know. I ended up on the first paper going with strictly with Chronic Illness as he has not liked anything thus far. I have a 50 and tomorrow it will be even less. Right now I am putting figures but to get this grade up please just let me know.

I believe you did the first one for me. this one is second and then the other is third.
