CRITICAL REVIEW AND ORGANIZATION OF SCHOLARLY RESOURCES

Organization of your search for scholarly resources is of key importance. A matrix, such as the one created for this course, can aid in this process.  A matrix is not meant to hold all of the details about the articles that you found, but it should contain the information that you need in order to decide which articles you will use for your weekly assignments.

For this Assignment, you will examine information from your resources in order to organize the information within the matrix.
