Dear all,
Apologies for my delayed response to your emails recently. I will be emailing each of you the assignment you should grade for the new deadline: May 9th.
In the meantime, please refer to the syllabus when writing your feedback. According to the guidelines, you should be looking for:
- A clearly and well-defined research question
- A strong motivation for the question, supported by a well-articulated review of the most relevant literature
- A clear explanation of the empirical methods used, including the rationale behind their selection, possible threats to identification, and strategies to address them
- Detailed discussion of measurement approaches
Remember that motivating the research question is particularly important, as is explaining the empirical methods. The research design should also make a convincing case for the project's feasibility. These are the main points to focus on when providing feedback to your peers.
Please let me know if you have any further questions. I will make sure to be more responsive to your emails during these final weeks of the semester.
Keep up the good work,
Jorge
