Literature Review Outline
To develop a focused, thorough literature review, it is important to develop an outline to guide your work and organization throughout the process. The outline is an evolving document. As you progress through the course, you will likely adapt and revise the outline.
The outline should be structured in a sentence outline format, with the identification of major points/themes and support for these points. Additional guidance and examples can be found in the APUS Writing Center.
The outline should be completed by Sunday 11:59 PM EST. A title page, reference page, and general APA formatting are required. Current (within the last ten years) scholarly resources are used.
Please address each section of the outline in 1-2 sentences:
