  3. BEDCI ABSTRACT • Carefully read the abstract. • Based on the abstract alone, what theoretical or conceptual framework do you think has informed this work?

  4. BEDCI http://www.lifescied.org/content/13/3/540.long. • Look at the INTRODUCTION to find quotesthat illustrate how a theoretical or conceptual framework informs this work. • Do the quotes confirm the framework you expected from the abstract or not? • If so, explain your reasons. • If not, do you prefer the framework from the abstract or from the first few pages?

  5. BEDCI CBE-LSE 13 (3), 540–551, 2014. • Given our discussion about the framework (with your partner, choose a or b) • what data collection and analytical methods would be appropriate to conduct and interpret this research? • what would you expect the authors to discuss or conclude at the end of this research?

  6. BEDCI http://www.lifescied.org/content/13/3/540.long. • Look at the a) METHODS & RESULTS, or b) DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION • to see how their framework actually informed this work. • a) Are the research methods and reported results appropriate to their framework? • b) Do the discussion and conclusions address what you expected? Explain. • a and b) If you had been on their research team, what advice would you have given the authors to improve this research?
