Hello NUSE unit (and guests),
Attached to this email you’ll find the long-awaited first full draft-version of our Ben Shapiro article. We are mindful of your time so if the entire article is perhaps too long to critically assess as a whole, we have some pointers that we are struggling with ourselves and that would be good points of attention:
1. We would kindly invite you to help us kill our darlings (and hereby apologize for the length of the paper): which parts of the article might be too long or even unnecessary in building our argumentation? Are the lengths of each part (introduction, theory, methodology, findings, conclusion, and discussion) in proportion to each other?
2. The alignment of the theoretical framework with the findings: is the literature review a logical framework from which the findings emerge?
3. the structure of the methodology and the findings: in this article, we aim to combine computational comment analysis with in-depth interviews. Finding the right ways of interweaving these two methods and findings has been a challenge and we would much appreciate your comments on how we structure the methodology and findings, and whether the steps we made are clear.
Thank you already for the effort, we are looking forward to the discussion!
See you on Thursday,
Daniël & Sarah
Met vriendelijke groeten Kind regards
