SECTION TWO: ABSTRACT AND LITERATURE REVIEW (1500 WORDS SUGGESTED)2.1 AbstractHelp: An abstract is a short summary of a research project that enables other researchers to know if your report or research paper is relevant to them without reading the whole report. It is usually written retrospectively so that it can include findings and results. It is fully expected that you will rewrite your abstract when you come to write your final paper. For now, you should write an abstract of about 250 words that define the project described in section one. Before writing your abstract you MUST read some abstracts from conference or journal papers on Google Scholar or from portal.acm.org (to understand their style) and then provide your own abstract that outlines what your question is and what you ‘did’ to answer it.2.2 Initial/Mini Literature ReviewHelp: A literature review is a select analysis of existing research which is relevant to your topic, showing how it relates to your investigation. It explains and justifies how your investigation may help answer some of the questions or gaps in this area of research. A literature review is not a straightforward summary of everything you have read on the topic and it is not a chronological description of what was discovered in your field. Use your literature review to:• compare and contrast different authors’ views on an issue• criticise aspects of methodology, note areas in which authors are in disagreement• highlight exemplary studies• highlight gaps in research• show how your study relates to previous studies• show how your study relates to the literature in general• conclude by summarising what the literature says2.3 Bibliography (key texts for your literature review)Help: Please provide references, in correct Harvard style, for at least three key texts that have informed your literature review. If you are implementing an application, select texts which demonstrate how other researchers have tackled similar implementations? The references should be recent and sufficiently technical or academic. Your markers will be looking for you to identify technical reports, conference papers, journal papers, and recent text books. Avoid Wikipedia entries, newspaper reports that do not cite sources, and general or introductory texts.This is the end of section two and you should upload your completed section by 23:55 on 04/01/2018Please see over for the grading Sheets / Marking CriteriaM37COM SECTION 1: DEFINING YOUR RESEARCH PROJECTStudent name:Research question / primary research method / audienceIn awarding a grade please consider:• That the research question is well formed and achievable• That the research question is specific and free from untestable generalisations• That the proposed project represents an appropriate level of challenge to a Masters student• That the primary method(s) proposed are appropriate and achievable and demonstrate application of a sound methodology/30Thoroughness of the proposal. In awarding a grade please consider:• That the student has thought through the potential impact and audience for the project• That the primary method is described and critiqued in sufficient detail• That, taken as a whole, the proposal is clear and complete./20Total/50
