As I move forward into my content$-$specific courses, I intend to independently expand my list of resources in preparation for defending my topic selection at my first residency. I will continue to expand my list of resources by reading more articles and books related to my topic. I will also attend conferences and symposia related to my topic to hear about the latest research. I will also search for online databases and websites that might have relevant information. I will use the upcoming courses to continue to develop my literature review by writing more annotations and summaries of the articles and books I read. I will also meet with my advisor to discuss my research proposal and get feedback on my literature review.

I plan to use the upcoming courses to continue to develop my literature review by looking for more peer$-$reviewed journal articles, books, and other reliable sources that discuss my topic. I also plan to attend library research workshops and meet with a librarian to get help finding more sources.
