Assessment Details 

Background 

The report requires a critical analysis of literature relevant to a proposal. The purpose of the task is to help  students identify and analyse relevant literature to assist in determining an appropriate topic for the research  proposal.  

Requirements 

You are required to submit: 

  • An interim research proposal (50-200 words) to provide context for your choice of literature. 
  • A synthesis matrix (as described in class). This should discuss at least 6 articles, and at least 5 or 6 main ideas discussed in those articles. Choose your articles carefully – these should be relevant to the core ideas of your chosen topic, and as far as possible published in reputable, peer-reviewed sources. If you have concerns about the quality of an article, discuss this with your tutor during lab classes. 
  • A list of references named in the synthesis matrix. These should be in APA referencing style. 

You have already done quite a bit of work for this research in tutorials: you should have a tentative research  issue, strategies and evidence to persuade your readers about the significance of the problem you’re  researching, as well as the validity of your research issues. You also should consider opposing views or good  counter-arguments that you can address in order to help establish your credibility and enhance the relevance of  your paper.  

1. Interim Research Proposal 

The submission must contain the following sections, submitted in the order as listed below- 

  • Title – proposal title (10 words maximum) 
  • Proposal - summarization of the significant concepts in the proposed study focusing on key aspects (200 words max) 

2. Synthesis Matrix 

3. References 

References- include relevant literature sources (a list of full-text references)
