This RC is part of TASK 2 of the course Documentation, Reflection and Critical review: Consisting in three parts: An explanatory part regarding the structure of the entire study, which should be pedagogical. The reader should be able to easily follow and understand your study. It must include answers to the following questions: What is the purpose of your study, i.e. what do you want to know? (For example, it could be related to communication between students, or something completely different!) What does your empirical material consist of? (data is sometimes used in social sciences) Who did you observe/interview? How did you go about observing/interviewing? Why did you make that choice? NOTE: Do not lose sight of the purpose because it is your common thread throughout your presentation. Performance of the study/analysis and interpretation. Here you describe in more detail how you analysed your material. How did you go about analysing the empirical data you collected? Base this on questions such as: What do you see? They can serve as your key concepts that you use in your analysis (think of the workshops we did during the week). Based on these, you discuss what becomes the underlying question (e.g. how communication between students works in this situation). In the next part, i.e. the discussion/conclusion, you link the analysis to your overall purpose (e.g. communication between students). Discussion/conclusion. Here you discuss your conclusion based on your purpose. What did you want to know and what were your findings? Be critical, i.e. twist and turn your conclusion and look at it from different perspectives. Discuss both what was chosen and what was excluded. Be reflexive. Think about your own values. How did they contribute to your conclusion? How could you develop your conclusion further? What questions could you develop? What would happen if you used a different method? In Research Catalogue, you choose how you want to do your three-part presentation. You can do it in writing or orally, for example by making an audio file, or both. Regardless of whether you do it in writing, orally or a combination of the two, the assignment must correspond to a maximum of 4,500 words (max. 10 pages/max. 40 minutes). NOTE: Remember to organise the presentation so that you do not make too detailed of a description.
