OVERVIEW: For Part I of this two-part assignment you identified and summarized elements of a published scholarly article selected from the classroom Resources Folder.  For Part 2, which is due by the end of Week 6, you will analyze, connect, and reflect on aspects of your selected article.  Note that the words “succinct” and “thorough” repeat regularly in the instructions below.  They will serve as reminders that this is a formal assignment and sentence fragments, bulleted lists, conversational or other types of casual language cannot be used.

In composing your work use complete and clearly articulated sentences in one or more paragraphs, as assigned below, a minimum of 250 words each and citing sources in the body of your writing and in a References list attached to the end of it.  Proofread your work carefully as proper spelling, grammar and writing structure are required.  All answers must be your original words or paraphrases of material in your selected article or the course textbook.  No other sources may be used.  Copying from published material is a violation of the University policy on academic integrity and will void all points for this assignment with no option for revision and submission.
