CD 5674 Adult Language Disorders
Diversity Literature Review
Review up to 3 documents (journal articles, books, or chapters)
which describe variations in language content, form, or use related to
differences in age, gender, or culture. Summarize and critique the
documents you reviewed. If more than one document is reviewed, integrate
the information as well as point out inconsistencies across documents while
attempting to reconcile any perceived differences.
General guidelines:
-
in your summary, state explicitly the differences in content, form,
or use the document describes
-
in your critique, discuss the validity and/or generalizability of the findings,
based on the sample study or the analysis method used.
-
if you review more than one document, I will look for evidence of analysis
and synthesis of the information. Specific features I will look for include:
-
discussion of how the documents related similar or different information
-
attempts to explain similarities or differences in findings
-
discussion of how the information presented in either/both documents relates
back to course content, and how you can apply this new knowledge
-
A single page for each document reviewed is probably adequate, with an
additional one to two pages for additional discussion as indicated above
-
this project should be completed independently
Review of one document (5 points)
two documents (10 points)
three documents (15 points)
Review of two documents with evidence of analysis and synthesis (15
points)
Review of three documents with evidence of analysis and synthesis (20
points)
