The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to select a topic in
the particular area in which you have an occupational or research interest, and to
complete a literature review of the topic, using a minimum of ten scholarly references.
This will allow you to demonstrate mastery of the program outcomes for the B.S.
criminal justice program at University.
For additional resources, conduct an Internet search using these keywords: writing a
literature review.
Based on your review of the most recent, relevant research findings on your chosen topic,
submit a final version of your literature review paper, integrating feedback received from
your instructor. Be sure to include a research/focal question, synthesis of the literature
you reviewed, well-established conclusions, and points of discussion and/or future
research.
· Begin the review by defining the objective of the paper. Introduce the reader to
your focal question. What is this question intended to address? You may state your
“question” in the form of a problem if you like. Describe the topic for your literature
review and why you chose this topic. Explain why you think it is important. It is also
useful to tell the reader how the review is organized in your introduction section, before
you transition into the body of the review.
· Organize your literature review paper by themes/theories/concepts, rather than
article by article. If there is one major theme you want to highlight, state the theme. If
there are three major themes or streams of thought on the topic, briefly name them—and
then organize the balance of your literature review around those three streams. Think of
themes, theories, concepts, lines of thought, and ideas as organizing strategies for your
literature review. Your creativity in this assignment is not the content or findings but the
clarity with which you organize the review and create a context for understanding the
focal question.
· When you are done introducing the first line of thought, create a new paragraph to
discuss studies which present another line of thought or opposing view.
2. · Your literature review should hit the high points of each article. You should not
discuss a single article, one by one, like a grocery list. Zero in on the main theme or
finding and then move on to the next theme. Remember, this is a synthesis, an integration
of all the things you have learned. You are creating a discussion on paper, which in turn
gives the reader a context for understanding where the scholarship has been, where it is
currently, and where it likely will be heading next. Provide enough details to help the
reader understand the significance of the studies you cite without “rebuilding Rome.” Be
sure to evaluate the studies and offer critical comments on any shortcomings you’ve
observed or that have been reported by the authors.
· Discuss the main findings and their implications. Given the results of your
literature review, what is/are the prevailing argument(s)? What research question could
you ask in order to further develop this area of study and contribute to the existing body
of knowledge? Complete your review by drawing conclusions about your body of
research and identifying gaps in the research which still remain to be explored, maybe
even by you! Make an argument as to why your research question is important and
relevant to the current work being done on your topic.
Requirements
Apply current APA standards for editorial style, expression of ideas, and formatting of
the text, headings, citations, and references. Remember to use your own words to
describe and evaluate the articles. Avoid quoting the material and also cite works when
you are discussing someone else’s ideas. Be sure to integrate any and all feedback
received from your instructor. Your paper should be double-spaced and in 12 point,
Times New Roman font with normal one-inch margins, written in APA style, and free of
typographical and grammatical errors. It should include a title page with a running head,
an abstract, and a reference page. The body of the paper should be no less than 5–6 pages
in length.

Utilizing the information you compiled for your literature review paper, and the feedback
you received from your instructor about the literature review, prepare a 10–15-minute
3. PowerPoint presentation on your topic, summarizing the key points and conclusions. Be
sure to direct this presentation to an audience in the community. For example, if your
paper pertained to a topic on Victims’ Rights, direct your presentation toward a
community policing program or a Rape Crisis Center. If your topic pertained to
Incarceration and Juvenile Justice, direct it toward a community service agency which
may use this information for educating teens or parents about preventing teen crime.
Please state in your presentation the specific audience toward whom your presentation is
aimed. Include a reference page in APA format, as well as detailed speaker notes and an
audio file with your presentation.
Your slides should provide answers to the following questions:
· What was your topic?
· What question did you hope to answer by completing this literature review paper?
Explain the practical implications of the conclusions of the literature review and the
audience to which they are directed.
· Given the results of your literature review, what is/are the prevailing argument(s)?
In other words, which of those is supported by the existing evidence? Be sure to include
full coverage of the arguments, including strengths and weaknesses of each of them,
supported by your findings from reviewing the relevant articles.
· Did the researchers consider multicultural factors in their studies? If not, what
factors may be involved? What multicultural factors should future studies include?
· What ethical issues are related to your topic and/or discussed in the studies you
reviewed?
· How do the conclusions of your literature review relate to the various
specialization areas in criminal justice?
· How can the conclusions of your literature review inform the population toward
whom your presentation is directed? How can they apply this information to their daily
lives? What advice or “take-home message” can you provide to your audience based on
the research you reviewed?
· What research question could you ask in order to further develop this area of
study?
· Why is your research question important and relevant to the current work being
done on your topic?
4. Your presentation should also follow these guidelines:
· It should be approximately 10–15 minutes in length.
· It should be clear, concise, and professional. Writing should be free of spelling and
grammatical errors; it should conform to current APA style (including any in-text
citations).
· It should include graphs, tables, figures, or images illustrating your ideas.
· There should be a final slide listing references in current APA style.
· The bulk of the text should be placed in the Notes pages of each slide. Keep the
amount of text on the slide, itself, to a minimum.
· You should recordan audio file of your oral presentation. You should also type the
text of the speech you would give while showing these slides to an audience s
