Conclusion
Prompt: In Module Two, you will submit your chosen topic to the instructor for approval. You will research three areas of this topic and submit an outline for each “strand” for grading and feedback. Your submission should include potential reference sources. Take note that this milestone rubric requires three resources for your outline at this point in time so that you can receive valuable feedback from your instructor. However, additional research and resources are expected as you complete your paper.
The topic may come from the list provided below or it can be self-designed, but it still must be approved prior to writing the outline. The final paper will not be accepted without topic approval.
