Part 1
After reviewing the material on the Literature Review posted below, return to your annotated bibliography(attached), and begin developing “categories” to help you to organize your sources.
Post one category below and list several sources from your annotated bibliogrophy that might fill that category. Remember that some sources may fall into more than one category.
Part 2
You can use a spider diagram to help you to structure your discussion of sources for writing assignments It can also help you to identify gaps and unanswered questions.
A spider diagram is a visual tool usually used for planning your writing. However, you can also use it for evaluating and thinking about a topic in detail.
To use the spider diagram, print out your draft of your last assignment. Then place a piece of paper in front of you and complete the tasks listed below.

Assignment:
Write your topic or title in the center of a piece of paper. Draw a circle around it.
Draw a “leg” from the central “body” of your topic towards the top right hand corner of the page. Label this “leg” with the first topic/category that you dealt with in your last assignment.
Add more legs moving clockwise around the page until all the sections have been included, with the final one being somewhere near the top left of the page.
Now divide each “leg” up into smaller “legs” with all the points that you made in each section. (Again work clockwise from the top left so that the sequence of ideas is maintained).
Finally, be sure that one section is devoted to identifying any gaps or niches in the research on your topic that you’ve discovered so far. For example, a lack of longterm studies on veterans with PTSD or studies on female video game players.
You may have to redraw your spider diagram several times until you find a structure that works for you. However, the result should help you decide the best categories for your essay–as well as what’s missing. post your spider diagram below.
Respond to this discussion topic with one paragraph describing how this task might have helped you or why it did not help you in organizing your thoughts for assignments 2(6 source essay) and 3(multiple source essay).
