Your outline should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.

For the annotated bibliography, you will prepare a brief annotated bibliography related to your selected model of MFT.

 

An annotated bibliography is a very effective way to explore the literature and have the effort produce a very useful document for writing papers, conducting research, or creating a reference tool for use in an MFT practice.

 

Be sure your articles are from peer-reviewed journals and were published within the past 5 years. Submit an annotated bibliography that includes these five entries. Choose articles that, taken together, will assist you in writing the paper you are outlining this week and that is due next week.

 

Note that each annotated entry must concisely summarize key aspects of the article (study, literature review, secondary analysis, etc.) — e.g., participants, purpose, research design and methods, data analysis, key findings — and include a thoughtful evaluation of the significance of the study’s findings and conclusions as they relate to the Classic or Postmodern Model about which you will be writing. To write quality entries, you must understand each study—what the researchers did, why they did it, and what they found and concluded.  Be sure you paraphrase all content, following Northcentral Academic Integrity guidelines to ensure that your work is your own.
