–Describe what questions the author(s) had when they started the research. What were they wondering
about?
–Describe any theories, hypotheses or specific research questions the author(s) tested (or explored or
examined) in their research.
–Describe the research (what method was used, where was it carried out, what the sample size was, etc).
–Summarize the results of the research. Discuss the limitations of the research. Give your evaluation of the
research and the article. Do you have any criticisms of how the research was carried out? Was there
information missing from the article that you though should have been included? Do you agree with their
interpretation of the results? What further research needs to be done on this topic? Is there a gap in the
research that you can start to fill with your own research proposal?
–Describe how this article relates to your research proposal topic. Are the hypotheses or theories ones you
might want to incorporate? Would you like to use a similar research method? Why or why not? This is a
general outline of the assignment. How much emphasis is given to each question will depend on your
judgement. Other issues not explicitly stated here may also be relevant for your article. It is up to you to decide
this, although you are welcome to consult with your instructor when you have selected and read a specific
article.
