DISSERTATION DRAFT

For our dissertation draft, we were required to take the findings we collected from the previous semester and compile and write it in the research dissertation format. We started by creating for our analysis and discussion section.

Matrix for analysis and discussion:

Using the matrix as a guide, we had to write out our discussion. 

This is my final discussion PDF:

We were then required to shorten our literature review to 750-950 words from the 7 critical reviews we did last semester. We must include all 7 journal articles, but they must be summarised. We could combine, compare and contrast articles that have similar topics.

Here is my final literature review:

After both the discussion and literature review was done, we had to compile it together with the writings for the other sections in the dissertation draft.
