Outline of Article for a Research Journal

One last part of my notes from the daily log that may be helpful for future reference.

RQs
Review of Secondary Research

• Not a summary
• Argument that synthesizes prior secondary research in a way the demonstrates a gap
• Cindy usually follows the pattern: 1. Here's the relevant stuff we know 2. Here's what we don't know 3. Here's what we need to know 4. Here's what I found out to help fill the gap

Context
Research Methods
Results: Discussion (Analysis of Key Pieces of Data--often reorganized by themes)
Implications/Questions for Further Research (answer so what? and what now?)

Cindy will send out over e-mail 2 articles as samples.
