[Note that you are NOT required or permitted to actually go out and collect primary data].
This assessment builds upon your Literature Review (assessment 2) in that you should now be aware of what additional data is needed to lead you to the answer to your research question (RQ). Rather than search for additional secondary data, this methodology report requires you to specify what primary data you would plan to collect and analyse. [Note that you are NOT required or permitted to actually go out and collect primary data].
Introduction, including your research question (RQ).
A detailed research methodology addressing the Research Design (see Marking Rubric row 2) proposed research sample (see Marking Rubric row 3), questionnaire design (see Marking Rubric row 4), envisaged data collection method, and envisaged analysis method (see Marking Rubric row 5), and a conclusion (see Marking Rubric row 6)
