Find 5 peer reviewed articles about your capstone project. Write a literature review.
Please follow the assignment rubric
A literature review is not an annotated bibliography in which you summarize briefly each article that you have reviewed.
While a summary of what you have read is contained within the literature review, it goes well beyond merely summarizing professional literature.
It focuses on a specific topic of interest and includes your critical analysis of the relationship among different works, and relating this research to your work.
In this case, your work will be your capstone project.
It may be written as a stand-alone paper or to provide a theoretical framework and rationale for a research study (such as a thesis or dissertation).
Your literature review will be written as a standalone paper.
