Note that the running head should be listed as no more than fifty characters, including letters, spacing between words, and punctuation of your title in uppercase letters. Your title, name, and school should be double-spaced and centered on the page.

Introduction and Problem Statement:

Your manuscript will open with an introduction that presents the topic researched and supported by a few citations. There are a few basic questions your introduction should address: Why is this topic important? How does the topic researched relate to previous studies? Also, what are the major implications of this topic? State why this topic deserves additional research?

(Literature) Describe relevant scholarship:

Your literature review should discuss relevant literature. The scholarly description of earlier work in your introduction should be able to provide a summary of work that is directly related to your topic. Show a logical continuity between previous and current research. How does the literature used add to an overall understanding of the problem or topic?

The references cited in your paper do not need to be exhaustive but should be sufficient to support the need for your review of the literature.

References should be accurate, complete and useful to your paper. Start your reference list on a new page. The word references should appear in upper case and lowercase letters, centered. Double-space all reference entries. APA publishes references in a hanging indent format, meaning that the first line of each reference is set flush left and subsequent lines are indented.

Conclusion:

You are now in a position to evaluate and interpret the implications of your review of the literature. What conclusions are you able to draw from your investigation? Acknowledge the limitations of your review of the problem, and address alternative explanation.
