Mondays 22nd June elluminate 3 - 5pm - TO DO list


Hi research methods group

Mondays Elluminate (Research methods) is a tutorial style session for the Literature review assessment - due date 20 September. It is a big task (60% weighting) and I want you to get underway early. You will find there is a lot of reading to accomplish - so important to locate your themes in good time so that you wont get overwhelmed after the break. Glance back at your time managmeent ideas and maybe haul those useful study tactics and strageies into place - reading about 30mins 4x a week should get you through!

I have completed the marking first phase of your collaborative task (I would like to complete a comments sheet before processing the marks) and have pulled up some potentially interesting topics for your individual literature reviews but would also like to take you through the following process using the assessment task list as a reference:

1. Selecting a title - brainstorming relevance
2. Writing exercise - selecting themes/ key words and categories
3. Development of an introductory paragraph
4. Troubleshooting the project - this section is about selecting a relevant theoretical framework to guide your query. You should have some ideas about this from your coll. task - not just quantitative or qualitative methods selection but what kind of scope/ audience/ research supports how you go about searchng the literature.

So before Monday 3pm - please set up a google doc and share with me - email David if you need help with this. Label this google doc.
RMAT3 Lit review - and your name.

David will be taking the Elluminate session on Thursday 25th (1 -3pm)- he will be discussing the Evidence Based practice approach - you might find this a really appropriate method - so keep an open mind in the meantime.

See (hear) you there
Felicity
