Objective: To write up a complete protocol


 
  Hand in by Monday Feb 16th

 

You will need to cobble together the previous 3 sections with a concise version of your literature review built into the introduction section. 

Otherwise follow the same headings that you used in the following sections..

Pilot data may be included in what you write up. 

A very detailed example is provided below.  You do not have to go to these lengths when drafting your protocol.  Just follow the structure and produce as concise a version as possible.

 

   

 

Learning activities:

Evaluation: 

Steps 1 through 6 will count 3 marks each (3x6 = 18), the final report 3 marks, and the final presentation oral 3 marks. This gives a total of 24 marks.

Marks will be allocated as follows:

3 = Complete, 2 = Progress, 1 = Markedly incomplete, 0 = no hand-in
