Hi everyone,
It is the beginning of September and everyone is still trying to figure out what the next academic year will look like.. and it’s already time for a new NUSE paper, sorry for that 😊
It is my first fully theoretical paper, and this is a rather developed draft, but it still does not have the concluding section. However, maybe this is a good point, because I feel I need your input specifically for discussing how to finalize this paper, and what you guys see as potential issues, possible directions, etc.
I still have some time (about a month and a half) before official submission: this is a paper selected for a special issue.
Therefore, without reinventing the wheel, I’d like to focus on:
*
Overall readability and clarity of construction of the argument and of the storyline, up until the presentation of the innovation capture concept: does the paper reads clearly and convincingly? If not, where exactly you would focus your attention?
*
Potential best directions to conclude the paper: should I just indicate the research trajectories that this concept invites to follow? What are these research trajectories? Do you see some links that I have not indicated yet?
*
Any other comment you want to bring to improve the manuscript.
This is also, possibly, my last presentation at a NUSE meeting, and it is in a way for me very nice (although obviously also sad) to wrap up my time at NUSE with a last paper discussion :)
Thank you for reading through it!
Ciao,
Giordano
