(HINT: Much of this material is located in the course and/or readings associated with the class. Incorporate such information but go beyond this such as the History of Social Studies Education Class, etc. Theorists identified from course materials and readings research the authors for additional information, theories, beliefs, published works, etc. This will build a substantial literature review. Incorporate Eric.ed.gov, and JSTOR found on the University Library site to incorporate references. You can also include materials from other classes, etc.)
