1. Create Rubrics
Based on your reading of the methodology articles, each team must create two analytic rubrics, one for Experiment and another for Field Study. Your rubrics will be used to evaluate the papers that your team chose last week. An analytic rubric (see 1, 2 to learn about analytic rubrics) analyzes an artifact (e.g., a research paper) by specific aspects/dimensions. To create this rubric, you first have to come up with a set of aspects/dimensions (min 4, max 8) that you believe are important for experimental research / field study based on the methodology readings, and describe the characteristics of research papers that would warrant different scores along each aspect/dimension. To create the rubrics, use this template in your team's Google Doc.
2. Paper Critique
Read the papers that your team selected for "Experiment" and "Field Study", and provide a critique of each paper based on the rubrics that you created. While reading the paper, if you think of changes to make to your rubrics, please feel free to do so! Use this paper critique template in your team's Google Doc.
3. Select Presentation Dates
During week 4 and 5, you will present a paper critique on one of the papers you have chosen. Your presentation should (1) introduce the value construct you decided to focus on (2) describe how the paper defines your value construct, (3) summarize the objectives, methodologies and key findings of the paper, (4) describe the rubric that you created for the main methodology of the paper, (5) provide a critique of your team's chosen paper based on your rubric. Your presentation should be 25 minutes long, followed by a 15 minute discussion led by another team, and have at most 20 slides. Use the provided spreadsheet to select your presentation date (first come first serve).
