For this week’s assignment, you will create a summative assessment outline that lists and describes each of the bulleted items on page 27 of the course guide. The outline is a pre-writing activity that will later be used to prepare the summative assessment for week 5’s assignment.

Your outline for week 3’s assignment should only be 3-5 double-spaced pages and include 3 scholarly sources in addition to the course text, which will be a total of 4 scholarly sources listed within your paper and on your reference list. I recommend that you use each bullet item on page 27 of the course guide as a section header.

An example of how your outline should be formatted as follows:

I. An introduction that identifies which of the five groups will be the basis of your final project. (3-5 sentences). Your introduction should include a statement of position and an overview of points that will be covered in your outline
