Project Plan
Write a plan for your project. Include the following:
• A few sentences expressing your topic. Why do you want to study this topic? What do you already know, and what do you want to find out?
• What is your research question? This is the question that your paper will seek to answer, and will guide the whole process. You should not have a complete answer to this question before you start your lit search.
• Reflection: Give a brief paragraph of reflexive analysis. Do you have a personal connection to the topic? What are some assumptions you have about the topic already? Any biases? How might your own ethnocentrisms influence your paper? Do you expect to meet challenges? Why or why not?
• A literary review plan: When and where will you do your literary review? What are papers from the course that relate to your topic? What are some keywords you can use in your search? Have you tested out those keywords? What challenges have you faced in looking into your topic already?
• Citations of 2-3 primary scholarly sources (like you would include in a works cited page or bibliography) that you plan to cite in your paper. These can be from the course material. This is just to get you started; you will need at least 8 primary scholarly sources in your annotated bibliography. Optional: Write 1-3 sentences paraphrasing the information you are planning to use from the resources, cited, as though in a paragraph of your paper. We will give you comments on whether you have properly paraphrased and cited the sources.
