Student will be directed to one academic and practitioner research paper to critically analyse and discuss. presentation in week 6 as allocated by your tutor. Choose an appropriate presentation style and supporting materials. For example, power point slides, handouts etc. Acutely I’m doing my own part which is this article only with my group and the tutor looking for about the research terms like is that a Deductive, Inductive or Abductive research. I attach the lecture which may be useful to understand the requirements clearly.

5. What are the limitations of the research?
6. Are there any issues that have not been addressed fully that need further research?
