Social Media is causing a serious problem for those trying to delineate between what is accurate and what is false information.
38334Part I: Literature Review
Write and submit a draft of Chapter 2, the Literature Review, including headings appropriate to the content. Take notes from the sources and organize them according to content themes.
Introductory paragraph
Begin with an introductory paragraph and place the informative thesis statement at the end of that first paragraph. The thesis statement is the major focus of the literature review chapter. All paragraphs relate in some way to that thesis statement.
Body paragraphs
Each body paragraph must begin with a topic sentence and end with a concluding sentence. See See pp. 183-184 of the Writing the Winning Thesis or Dissertation textbook. Every paragraph must contain information you have read in sources. Do not use more than 10% quotes in the entire chapter. Every paragraph must have citations for all paraphrased information. Do not use any of your own opinions or experiences. This is purely information from researched sources.
Concluding paragraph
End with a concluding paragraph that begins with a restatement of your thesis sentence that you used in the introduction. Add nothing new to the conclusion. It is a summary of the body paragraphs.
Note: Beware of inadvertent plagiarism. Do not use any wording or phrasing from the authors of your sources unless you place the words in quotation marks. Every idea MUST be cited, regardless of how you paraphrased the information. Please focus on the guidance provided by the OWL Web Site. You will be held responsible for the writing, as well as the content of this chapter.
Review punctuation, especially semicolons. If you do not know how to use them, don’t! Review comma rules. Every comma has its own rule. Know why you are using them. Be sure to revise your work several times. Have someone else read your writing, as he or she will catch errors you missed. That is just common practice among writers. This is a scholarly work.
Part II: Annotated Bibliography
Prepare an Annotated Bibliography of sources based on the references you used for Part I: Literature Review. Your annotated bibliography should include information such as how, why, strength, weakness, biases, etc..
Use APA or MLA format to create the annotated bibliography. Note that all business, science, and social science disciplines must use APA format; creative, literary, theater arts must use MLA format. See the Purdue University Online Writing Lab [OWL] Web site at http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/ for format information.
If using APA format, title this page References; if you are using MLA, title this page Works Cited.
Place your Annotated Bibliography at the end of Chapter 2 (at this point). This will eventually become part of the References (APA) or Works Cited (MLA) that will be placed at the end of Chapter 5 of your capstone project.
Students Please Note: This assignment calls for an annotated bibliography. Review the material in your text.

Helpful Strategies for Organizing the Literature Review
1. Select relevant literature and summarize information that highlights important
elements. Put them on note cards and identify not only the citation information
but the page number of the information.
Extract the following from the literature:
o Information related to major question and sub questions.
o Studies that have been done related to questions.
o Analysis of studies and information related to questions.
o Descriptions, designs, and anecdotes.
2. Write out complete citations
My main and sub questions are:
• How is the ease of sharing misinformation via social media altering our ability to navigate what is real and what is false information?
Supporting Questions:
• Why is there so much misinformation on social media?
• Who drives misinformation and why?
• How can people delineate between what is real and what is false?
• What influences the sharing of information whether it is fact or fake?
I’ve attached my Introduction just in case. The number of pages also includes the summarizing of the bibliographies.
