The challenge is to select a topic that is neither too narrow nor too broad. I am looking for more than a simple summary of the papers that you surveyed. Bring your own creativity to bear on the subject through synthesis and interpretation of ideas from disparate sources. Your paper may be critical and/or comparative.
Your outline should address not only the general problem area you wish to explore but also how you will focus on a well defined, limited question. If I am concerned that your proposed approach contains a major stumbling block, I will ask you to revise it.
