What is a literature review?
A literature review is NOT a book review; it is a review of the literature. THE literature, in this
case, means all of the research you have collected. Your secondary sources only. The
scholarship.
So, why am I doing this?
Because good researchers—good writers—do it. You may be tempted to just jump directly from
gathering materials to writing an essay (or you may have been tempted to skip the research part
altogether); however, before you can write an essay, you need to identify a purpose for your
writing and develop a plan for using your sources. You need to synthesize; the lit review is that
synthesis. This is also an important step in proving your expertise before I allow you to edit and
annotate a fairy tale.
So, what am I looking for?
Basically, you are looking for patterns of association; you want to look at the body of scholarship
(the literature) you have collected and decide how it all works together. You need to see the
literature as a body of research rather than separate pieces. The scholarship is written by real
scholars who are familiar with one another’s work and sometimes know each other personally; it
is a kind of elaborate conversation. You are listening to that conversation, waiting for a good
opportunity to jump in.
So, I have six pieces of literature to review, right?
Well, you have AT LEAST six pieces. It will actually be easier to write a lit review of more
sources; eight or ten sources would be a good number. This does require more research and more
time for reading, but the payoff is greater expertise and more to discuss in the review.
Okay, so what do I do first?
First, make sure you have gathered the literature. For this assignment, I am only permitting you
to use the CSCC Library databases to gather your sources. Specifically, you will look at the
Academic Search Complete, MLA International Bibliography, and Literary Reference Center
databases; if these don’t turn up 6-10 good sources for you, then you can search other databases
(and I have posted a video showing you how to do this research, so make sure you watch it). You
are NOT permitted to locate web based sources, even via Google scholar. And I am asking you
not to use books, simply to save time.
And then?
Once you have all of the literature, you should read it and understand it. It isn’t absolutely
necessary to pore over each page of each source—this would likely be hundreds of pages of
difficult reading. Use your reading skills—the first two or three pages usually contain the thesis
and main arguments—the last couple of pages will often contain some kind of summary or
conclusion. Look for important headings in between. I strongly suggest highlighting the thesis
(probably more than a single sentence) and the main points (topic sentences) and any interesting
passages you may want to reference later.
But how do I write the lit review?
You should begin by grou.

Adopt-a-Plant Project guidelines
Overview:
The purpose of this project is for you to choose a plant, conduct online research into the biology of the plant, and communicate what you have learned. You will be preparing an annotated bibliography on the plant you choose. The entire project is worth 50 points
Annotated Bibliography (50 points)
You will prepare an annotated bibliography with a list of the top 10 most interesting facts about your plant.
· Each fact should be paraphrased (i.e. written in your own words, no quotations allowed).
· Then tell me why this is interesting to you – make connections to your life or to currents issues in our world.
· Finally, give a full citation and tell me why you think this is a reliable, trustworthy source. Use this libguide to help you come up with reasons why your source is trustworthy.
· At least one of your sources should be from a peer-reviewed, science journal article.
Here is an example:
Fact 1: Taxol is a chemotherapy agent derived from the bark of the Pacific Yew Tree. The chemical itself is derived from a fungal endophtye within the bark. I thought this was very interesting, because the Pacific Yew tree is native to the state of Washington, and my aunt Jane received Taxol while undergoing chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. I also thought it was interesting because of the mutualistic relationship between the plant and the fungus.Citation: Plant natural products from cultured multipotent cells
Roberts, Susan; Kolewe, Martin. Nature Biotechnology28.11 (Nov 2010): 1175-6.
This is a reliable source because it is published in a peer-reviewed science journal article, written by two PhDs that are providing a review of the current literature on the topic
To complete the assignment, you should first choose a plant, gather articles discussing your plant, read the articles sufficiently enough to discuss the plant, and finally write the annotated bibliography. You are expected to produce original work, and any plagiarism will receive a zero. The paper should be double-spaced, and typed in 12 point font size, with normal margins. The instructions for how to properly cite your sources are at the end of this handout.
*** Reminder: The scientific name of a plant should always be typed in italics, with the first letter of the Genus capitalized. For ex.: Digitalis lanata. When you search for information on your plant online, make sure to use the scientific name, which will bring back a wider variety of results
The bibliography is worth 50 points and will be graded on:
1. Effort
• Quality of references
•Depth/breadth/quality of material covered
2. Following directions/ requirements
I will use the following rubric to grade your bibliography:
Research, Critical Reading and Documentation
Balanced, authoritative sources; correctly cited sources; effectively integrated outside sources. Most sources from science journals
10 pts
Effective sources, correctly cited, Could have a few more.

How to Write a Literature Review
What This Handout is About…
This handout will explain what a Literature Review is and offer insights into the form and
construction of a Literature Review in the Humanities, Social Sciences, and Sciences.
Introduction
OK. You’ve got to write a literature review. You dust off your world literature
anthology book, settle down in your Ebert and Roper at the Movies theatre chair with
your popcorn and soda in hand, and get ready to issue a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down”
as you leaf through the pages. “Literature Review” done. Right?
Wrong! The “literature” of a literature review refers to any collection of materials on a
topic, not necessarily the Great Literary Texts of the World. “Literature” could be
anything from a set of government pamphlets on British colonial methods in Africa to
scholarly articles on the treatment of a torn ACL. And a review does not necessarily
mean that your reader wants you to give your personal opinion on whether or not you
liked these sources.
What is a literature review, then?
A literature review discusses published information in a particular subject area, and
sometimes information in a particular subject area within a certain time period.
A literature review can be just a simple summary of the sources, but it usually has an
organizational pattern and combines both summary and synthesis. A summary is a recap
of the important information of the source, but a synthesis is a re-organization, or a
reshuffling, of that information. It might give a new interpretation of old material or
combine new with old interpretations. Or it might trace the intellectual progression of the
field, including major debates. And depending on the situation, the literature review may
evaluate the sources and advise the reader on the most pertinent or relevant.
But how is a literature review different from an academic research
paper?
While the main focus of an academic research paper is to support your own argument, the
focus of a literature review is to summarize and synthesize the arguments and ideas of
others. The academic research paper also covers a range of sources, but it is usually a
select number of sources, because the emphasis is on the argument. Likewise, a literature
review can also have an “argument,” but it is not as important as covering a number of
sources. In short, an academic research paper and a literature review contain some of the
same elements. In fact, many academic research papers will contain a literature review
section. But it is the aspect of the study (the argument or the sources) that is emphasized
that determines what type of document it is.
Why do we write literature reviews?
Literature reviews provide you with a handy guide to a particular topic. If you have
limited time to conduct res.
The Proposal In a paper proposal, your job is to answer t.docxssusera34210
The Proposal
In a paper proposal, your job is to answer the what, how, and why of your essay topic so that
your audience understands the basic parameters of your argument.
For this proposal, you will write me (your professor) a letter that contains the following:
1) Capture the reader’s interest with your introduction, which should be a brief explanation
of your topic as a whole. This is where you explain the exigency (show why this is a
problem/idea worth considering and why?)
2) Write your working thesis statement. Formulate the question that will govern your
research, and then answer it with a strong statement/claim that your paper intends to
prove.
3) Supply background/context on your topic along with the purpose and relevance of your
thesis. Explain what you hope to prove or uncover. Provide concrete examples of the
issues you will be exploring, and explain why the research you will conduct is important.
This is where you will branch away from the primary source (the novel) to explain why
the theme or idea you are exploring is relevant beyond the page.
4) Discuss preliminary research on your topic while developing your proposal; explain how
this research fits into your argument and plans for the paper. How are you going to use
your sources? (make sure to include primary and secondary sources).
Project Text: The Road
In this project we will explore the post-apocalyptic genre and how texts of this genre reflect issues
and anxieties coursing through everyday life.
You will begin this Project by reading and analyzing Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. During this
time, we will pay close attention to themes being built within the text that provide insight on
“real-world” issues. You will then conduct research of your own (using the CSUN databases) in
order to find evidence that supports your theme in that “real-world” context.
The essay itself will be an argument made by you with an explicit thesis that is proven with
evidence from our primary text: The Road, and at least three resources you have found on the
CSUN databases.
Basic Requirements:
- 6 page minimum with Works Cited (not included in page count)
- Standard MLA Format
- A completed essay packet.
- Essay needs to be posted to your Class Website AND turned in at the beginning of class.
- Minimum of 3 secondary sources. You may use the articles I have provided for you, but
these will not count towards the minimum requirement.
- Proof of visit to the LRC.
- Completion of all lead-up exercises.
Exercise 1: The Review
For this assignment, you will be required to write a scholarly review of Cormac McCarthy’s The
Road. In this review, you will be required to interpret The Road within a larger conversation (based
on the themes you have been developing throughout the past few weeks). Your review will need
to include supplemental information from two of our previous texts.
750 Word Minimum. Posted to your Class Websit ...
This week you will begin by composing a Working Bibliography, a co.docxherthalearmont
This week you will begin by composing a Working Bibliography, a collection of 10 sources that MIGHT answer the questions you outlined in your Research Proposal. If not, they will at least get you started in examining reliable sources and thinking about the questions you asked. They will also help you acquire some background information and context for the current research on the topic you have chosen.
From the working bibliography, you will choose seven sources you have identified as the most reliable sources and the ones that best answer the questions you posed in your Research Proposal. Those sources will form the basis for the next assignment, the Online Casebook. Basically, the Online Casebook is an annotated bibliography that is posted online. It includes notes and analysis on sources that will be quoted and paraphrased in the final essay.
None of the assignments in the next two modules are particularly difficult, and you have already had practice with the skills that are required, but the assignments do require that you set aside several hours for reading and analysis. Possibly up to six hours are required to complete this assignment depending on how fast you read and how much time it takes to locate reliable sources.
To get started finding the most credible and accurate sources for the bibliography, you will learn how to use the Sinclair Library Databases. For every research project, I recommend you start by looking at the databases because the information you find there has been reviewed by scholars and librarians, and so, you know you can trust it, at least more so than a random website or Wikipedia.
Which reminds me, although Wikipedia is a great place to find general information on many topics, NEVER USE WIKIPEDIA as a source for academic research projects. You can start there for your own enlightenment; you might even look at the sources that the Wikipedia page cited and use those sources for your project, but do not list Wikipedia on the Working Bibliography or any where in the research paper.
Don't worry though, in the next few lessons you will discover many other places to find the information that you need, and if that doesn't work, ask a librarian. They get excited about research and will be happy to help you find what you need. You can even set up an appointment on the phone, through a chat room, or on campus to get their undivided attention.
A working bibliography is a list of potential sources for a paper. It may include books, articles, websites, interviews, videos, etc. For this class, it should include at least 10 items. It is not necessary to read a source completely to put it in your working bibliography, but you should skim it enough to tell whether it has value for your project. The working bibliography is formatted the same as a works cited page.
A working bibliography is a "working" document in two ways. First, it will change throughout the research process—expanding each time you add a potentially useful source ...

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Week 12
TO DO THIS WEEK-
GATHER SOURCES- As per the assignment sheet, you will have a minimum of seven
or a maximum of ten total sources for this assignment. Three of these sources need
to be multimedia. (This includes graphs, graphics, pictures, charts, etc.) When these
sources are gathered, list them alphabetically, following MLA-8 works cited
guidelines.
DUE- Sunday, April 5th, at 11:59
WHAT IS A BIBLIOGRAPHY?
A bibliography is a list of the books referred to in a scholarly work, typically printed as an
appendix.
Academic papers and other forms of essays use a bibliography, or works cited page, for the
reader to have access to the sources the author used.
Why would this be important? For author credibility, correct intellectual property
deference and value, and a direction for further research if a reader so wishes.
~Credibility
An author in any setting is held as more credible if they use other credible sources
to base their arguments or ideas on. Say for instance you read this article on
Buzzfeed about Coronavirus mutating at a fast rate and infecting rats. I would find
this concerning, and I would check the articles sources. If there were none, I would
completely disregard the article. If the sources were sketchy at best, I would look to
see who else is writing about this subject. If the sources were highly credible like the
CDC and WHO, I would start to believe them.
~Intellectual Property
Say someone writes this dissertation about how the physical world is actually a
form of the real thing. And, they say it’s like we’re in a cave and we can only see the
shadows of reality, like flames reflected in the dark. For you savvy readers you
recognize these thoughts as a sad display of Platonic reasoning. But the author’s not
cited Plato at all in the essay. This isn’t ok! You think. How dare this author claim
these thoughts are their own when this classic philosophy, and how dare they posit

other ideas based on this reasoning so as it looks like their own philosophy! In text
citation is used not only with quotations, but with intellectual ideas as well as to not
make it look like you’re the one who came up with these concepts.
~Further Research
So then let’s say this dissertation gets edited and corrected and you find that this
author uses Platonic philosophy to create an argument which supports
extermination as the method for dealing with unwanted citizens like the differently-
abled, prisoners, and orphans. You think to yourself; this needs more research. Or,
perhaps, you think how the hell did they reach that conclusion? So, you check their
source list. You can tell by looking up their selection of philosophers and writers
that this author relies on known un-credible sources. “Looking up” can mean just
googling the author and the book, or actually reading the book.
Helpful Tip- Use the keywords list and the topic sentence you created during Library week
to help you find your sources. Because you need multimedia sources, remember to look at
video sources, podcasts, blogs, interviews, videogames, Instagram vids, tiktoks etc.
WHAT ARE CITATIONS?
Citations are the individual source information, listed in a specific way. Citations generally
have author name, title of piece, publisher information and date published.
In Part 4, Chapter 12b-2 of Becoming Rhetorical, you can find helpful information about
checking citations or creating your own citations.
Below (on the next page) is a correct MLA-8 works cited page, with correct citations. Notice
that the first line of each citation is not indented, but the remaining lines are. Some
citations, like book citations, are much shorter than online publications.
