Course Project
This week you should complete the Literature Review for your project.
This part is not graded; however, completion of this part of the project
will keep you on track to complete the assignment in the various parts by
the due date. Review the course project tab under course home for
specific details.
Part 3: Literature Review
Address what was discovered in the search of relevant literature, related
articles, and the employee benefit text, as well as what was discovered in
Part 2. This means not only reviewing theories, concepts, and studies
discussed in the text or in class, but also reviewing websites and what
other writers have to say about benefit plans. Given the limited number
of weeks that a term provides and the number of steps involved in the
course project following the literature review, no more than two weeks
should be spent in reviewing literature. It is critical that those
completing questionnaires, being interviewed, or providing information
in any other manner be assured that their responses will be kept in the
strictest of confidence and will not be discussed in whole or part to any
member of the organization or outside the boundaries of the classroom.
I recommend you begin your literature search by accessing Keller’s
Online Library. While you may use information obtained from HR-
related websites, you must also obtain information from current
scholarly journals, business publications, and newspapers. Ten or more
outside resources or references are required.
