Identify a research question that can be conceptually developed using relevant theory and empirical evidence from the area, and explored empirically. 2.) Demonstrate an appreciation of the relevance of core theory within the discipline and its role in formulating a research question, as well as its ability to act as a lens in interpreting empirical observations in both the literature and your own research data. 3.) Formulate a series of hypotheses, propositions and/or a conceptual model, and clearly communicate how this/these are justified in the context of high quality, academic published empirical and conceptual studies from your core academic domain and related subjects. 4.) Explain the logic for selection of your chosen research design, communicating why and how this design is particularly relevant to your core research question(s) and how it can be practically achieved 5.) Demonstrate independence, persistence, and ethical awareness in the collection of a substantial dataset through which your research question(s) can be explored. 6.) Explain the process and outcomes of your data collection and analysis activities. 7.) Critically evaluate your findings in the context of the prior literature, being mindful of the depth, contextual boundaries, and potential flaws of your work in of itself and in the context of the state of the art academic literature in your subject area and related fields.
