This week, your assignment has two parts: Part 1 is to develop an outline of headings; Part 2 is to complete the Synthesis Matrix.

Part 1.

Develop an annotated outline for the Signature Assignment based on the description of three levels in this week’s introduction:

1.  A framework of headings
2.  The inclusion of supporting citations
3.  The inclusion of supporting paraphrased comments

While this outline may still change for the final paper, the time you spend developing this outline with the supporting research will be rewarded by making the writing of the paper predictable and in line with APA style and formatting requirements. Include an APA-style title page before the outline and a complete references section following the outline.

Length: 2-3 pages, not including title and reference pages

References: Include a minimum of 8 scholarly resources

Part 2.

Submit your completed Synthesis Matrix to show how the sources align with the topics of the paper.

Length: 1-3 pages, depending on a number of resources and length of comments

Your assignment should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect graduate-level writing and APA standards.
