Mentoring African American/Minority You and the effects it has on their academic achievements and dropout rate

Locate a dissertation related to your topic and research question in the Argosy University online library [or another library]. Write a 3–4 page critique of the literature review section (Chapter 2 of the dissertation), using these kinds of guiding ideas to think about the review: 1) How was the literature related to the research problem? 2) What was the theoretical or conceptual framework, and how was it used to frame the literature? 3) Was the literature synthesized clearly? 4) How was the chapter organized? What was the organizational scheme--that is, what themes or chronology was used? How was it made apparent?
In Doc Sharing, there are two documents titled "Review of the Literature" [M 4 & 6], which should be useful for analyzing this literature review, and "Suggestions for Reading and Writing Literature Reviews" also helpful in writing your own literature review draft in M6.
