For this assignment you will develop a short literature review on the topic (Distance Education and Internet learning) you chose in the first discussion in Unit 2 (See discussion below). The literature review should include a minimum of five sources, three of which must be different scholarly journals for your field or specialization. Writing a literature review is a key part of academic work. A literature review is a piece of writing that describes what has been learned about a topic through previous research efforts. It is essentially a report on work previously done in a field, to show an understanding of the context for your own writing.

A literature review is not a summary of individual sources in a list, such as in the form of an annotated bibliography. Rather, the literature review paraphrases the findings from the scholarly readings you selected. You will seek the key themes from the different sources. It is expected you will use in-text citations to support the information that you learned from the scholarly readings. See the APA Manual 6th Edition, section 6.11 for additional detail on citing sources in text.
