Assignment Description
Annotated Outline & Literature Review.
The Annotated Outline includes the description of what needs to be investigated under each potential future chapter or section. These descriptions can be very brief but must contain a logical order for both the future Research and future Discussion showing what research work needs to be carried out.
Also, the Literature Review gives a broad view of what knowledge/investigations already exist in the field. Students demonstrate an understanding of how the thesis topic focus fits in this context of existing knowledge & research.
Core Research & Analytical Discussion
The student shows a clear in-depth understanding on the existing research knowledge and shows personal initiative / creativity for the analysis and discussion.
It is important that the student knows how to proceed with all research phases, that she/he has a clear theoretical design to support them which is well underway and that gathering data (quantitative and /or qualitative) as well as its analysis in a personal discussion has started.
Complete Final Thesis
Clear, logical and thorough presentation and development of the research questions, the reasons for asking then, and the evidence provided to support them.
This Grade is provided, independently, by both the Supervisor and the Second Reader on the basis of an evaluation made according to the Evaluation Table (considering Structure, Depth & Breadth, Content, Innovation, Literature Review, Language, Presentation, and the Degree of Difficulty of the topic/Research).
