culminating project

Interpretation and Synthesis: You must weave your primary findings (experiments/observations) together with your secondary research (library research). Explain how they support or contradict one another and explicitly link them back to your original Hypothesis.
Evidence-Led Analysis: Ground your claims in “compelling evidence”. This means seamlessly integrating specific numbers and data points into your writing to justify your conclusions.
Deep Dive into Primary Methods: You must provide a robust analysis of two distinct primary research methods (e.g., an interview and a survey). Analyze how the design of these methods influenced your results and connect the findings of both.
Broader Implications: Discuss the “big picture”, how your specific findings might affect the wider field or industry.

MLA Citation: You must demonstrate “exceptional adherence” to MLA style. This includes consistently accurate in-text citations for every claim derived from a source and a comprehensive, properly formatted reference list at the end of the document.
Clarity: Ensure every paragraph leads to a concise “key takeaway” that is easy for the reader to identify.

Paragraphs:

Interpretation & Synthesis (6/10): You did not develop a deep and specific synthesis, as your connections to the hypothesis remained general despite attempts at interpretation and linking.
Evidence Integration & Clarity of Key Take-Aways (5/10): You did not consistently integrate numerical data in a clear and seamless way or include explicit key takeaway sentences, as they were often missing or only implied.
Discussion of Two Primary Methods (5/10): You did not critically analyze how the design of each method influenced the results or provide a strong comparison between them, even though both methods were presented.
Consistent & Accurate MLA Citation (6/10): You did not ensure a fully accurate MLA format, as your reference list contains multiple formatting errors despite having in-text citations.
