To ensure this uniqueness, each student must decide on a topic and email their topic and title to their tutor within the first 2 weeks- Your tutor will respond with an approval or with a message that you will either need to choose a different topic or to change the thrust of your paper- You tutor may decide to do this for you-
Deliverable Descriptions
Below is a description of the different deliverables and the requirements
The outline will consist of: the title, your name and a list of the section headings that will be included in your Literature Review- You should include at least 5 section headings which are relevant to the topic you have been allocated, -this list should not include either 'Introduction' or 'Conclusion', though these can be included apart from the 5 others-- You need to include at least five preliminary references and indicate in which section they will be included- The references must be relevant to the topic assigned-
Thus once allocated your topic, you need consider how you will structure the literature review so you can devise a list or headings- You must have access the full-text article of any reference you use- You cannot use a reference where you only have access to the abstract and title, or a small section of the paper-
For the draft submission you are to write an Introduction, consisting of at least 2 paragraphs, and you are to write one major paragraph for each of the five sections that you identified in the outline submission-
Your introduction and other paragraphs should cite references from your reference list, and your reference list for this submission should include your previous references and at least another 5 references which are relevant to the topic allocated- So your reference list should contain at least 10 references at this stage- All references must be in Harvard format including the in-text citations- For each reference you must include a link to the full text of the reference- This link must be working and cannot be to just an abstract and title, or only a section of the paper you are referencing- This must be a direct link, we will not follow multiple links trying to find the paper-
