● Go through your annotated bibliography.
● Based on the information presented in your annotated bibliography sources
(and others if needed), define a problem statement that, in your opinion,
would be useful and practical for you to investigate.
● Organize your sources by sorting and classifying their findings in a
meaningful way, always considering your original topic and problem.
● Write a literature review that would seem to offer the greatest potential for
developing a good theoretical framework, using seven to ten references. All
of these can be from your annotated bibliography, or you can use others in
addition to those in your annotated bibliography.
● Develop the theoretical framework incorporating its basic functions as
discussed in the text.
● Generate a set of testable hypotheses based on your research question and
the theoretical framework.
Your report must contain the sections outlined below. APA formatting standards must
be followed throughout. The paper does not have to be lengthy; perhaps 750 to 1500
words. The introduction, research question, and hypothesis statement sections should
be short and succinct. Most of the word count in your report will be in the literature
review and theoretical framework sections.

is a problem, why you selected it, and why it is important to solve the problem. Use
references as necessary to support your arguments.
Literature Review
This should be one of the longer sections in your report. It should summarize other work
related to the problem you identified. It should identify important variables and
document significant findings from earlier research.
Research Question
This should be a brief section with a clear and concise statement of your question. It
should be clear to the reader that your question is a logical outgrowth of previous
research as summarized in your literature review.
Theoretical Framework
This section applies to deductive research. It should be one of the longer sections in
your report.
Hypotheses
This brief section should contain a clear and concise statement of your hypothesis or
hypotheses. The hypotheses should be a logical outgrowth of the theoretical framework.
