NOTE: Instructors will return any draft #2 submission with a clear warning if there is no evidence of advancement from the previous draft submission. Any and all corrections or clarification requirements requested in the last submission draft must be addressed clearly. (Note that the word “addressed” here can mean 1. suggestion taken or 2. suggestion not taken but a new direction taken to satisfy the instructor’s comment). In other words, it is critical that there has been enough progress that the final submission is now in sight with this version submission. This is critical for your opportunity to pass this class on time.
Submission: See rubric
(this version includes sections in Results and Discussion with reminders on inclusion requirements however please use the modules to verify you have included all necessary points that each chapter requires).
A complete draft of the project, which requires Chapters 1 through 5, must be included.
The focus of this review is on Results and Discussion with a review of the updates to Methods and alignment throughout.
The point of this review is as follows (to verify…):
- Feedback incorporated and addressed for the Methods section
- Table of Contents present
- Abstract present (if not yet completed with full results and impact)
- Results present
- The aim statement is presented at the start of the chapter
- Results at this stage are present and complete or almost complete (DIRECT answer to the research questions).
- If literature review as a method: clear what information was extracted from the literature that met inclusion/exclusion
- articles/regulations that met inclusion/exclusion are in a table and presented to the reader
- use appendices as needed for applied projects such as SOPs, Regulation comparison etc.
- If the survey, responses to the survey along with the reason each question is applicable to the research questions to answer the aim/thesis.
- At least one (usually more) visual (i.e., table/figures, etc). is required in the final submission.
- Discussion, if not also the conclusion is present
- The discussion starts with the Aim Statement (again) and whether the aim was met and how.]
- Includes a discussion of how your results “fit” into the literature that you reviewed in the background.
- This would not be possible without in-text citations. That is a critical part of this process.
- You must compare and contrast your findings with others. This is required.
- Limitations of your research (all research has them)
- Future direction – what should future researchers do to push this research forward for the benefit of society or industry (or academia)?
All tenses will have to be changed to past tense before final project submissions.
This review is NOT:
- focused on the Introduction and Background,
- Although alignment is verified between each chapter with your clear aim statement (at the start),
- focus on APA formatting, as this will be incorporated into the first and final review. It is up to the student researcher to verify APA formatting.
Have questions? Please ask and take the initiative and responsibility for your success.

This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeAlignment
Alignment is evident in each chapter. Some examples of this: research questions are direct (valid) from aim/purpose of the project. Method is introduced in Background chapter and evident in the aim/purpose statement. Research questions are answered in the results. Research questions are clear on how they are addressed and how they are related to results.

This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeResults
Starts with Research Aim/purpose. Results have description of ONLY the results of the project. Results are reliable in method (can be duplicated based on the method outlined). For example, exactly what the answers are to the research questions are evident clearly to the reader. Includes at least one or more figures/table/image. If this project is a lit review as a method, the articles that met inclusion/exclusion are provided clearly in the results.

This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeDiscussion
The discussion starts with the research aim/purpose and research questions. Identifies whether the aim was met in the project. Discussion “discusses” the results. Discussion “discusses” how the results fit in the literature that is outlined in the background literature. For example, how is the identified “gap” filled with the research, results are compared and contrasted with literature in background (in-text citations are plentiful in this chapter). Limitations of the literature are evident, future research direction is listed.
