Please see attached Literature Review and edits made by my Professor. Please rewrite this based on her edits:
Her comments:
--I have spent some time with your literature review and realized that much of the content you wrote about belongs in Chapter 4 -- Data Analysis. You have the bones of a comparative case study -- Amazon, eBay and Shopify. More detail is needed but you have a great start on that chapter. Even pulling out the case study parts from Chapter 2 you still have plenty of appropriate information but you need more of it. You also need many more citations -- you are reviewing literature so you need to be citing your sources. The attached document shows all my comments. I took the liberty of separating your original content into Chapter 2 and Chapter 4 so it would be easier for you to see how I am recommending you reorganize your content. Separating it also shows you where gaps exist and more content is needed. I can only attach one doc per email so you will be getting two additional emails from me on this topic.
--Attached is the reorganization of Chapter 2 after I removed case study pertinent content. Look at the first page of the comments I sent to you attached to my previous email and you will see areas where you can add to what remains of Chapter 2 (as shown in the attached.)
--Here is the content I pulled from Chapter 2 that I think belongs in Chapter 4. Make sure each case has the same headings and contents therein so you can compare and contrast approaches and draw conclusions as to their effectiveness in Chapter 5.
Attached is also powerpoints explaining how each chapter should be.
This paper needs to be 5 chapters/35 pages.
Chapter 1: Introduction - This chapter includes a description of the
problem under study, the research question that the study seeks to answer, and a brief
description of how your research will benefit your sponsoring organization (Significance
of Study). Briefly describe how you will conduct your original research and document
any potential limitations of the methodology you selected. (This information is rooted in
your review of literature and depends on the research methodology/design you have
selected to use to study the problem.) If you do not have an organizational sponsor
(internship or current employer), identify how your research might be used within a
professional security setting. Chapter 1 should be 8-10 pages.
Chapter 2: Review of Literature - Use the annotated bibliography as a start and
build from there, focusing the content on what experts have researched and conclusions
they have drawn about the problem you have identified. Use headings in the text to break
up the content into logical topic areas – broad to narrow. Chapter 2 is typically the
longest at 10-15 pages. Lots of citations are required in this chapter.
Chapter 3: Methodology - This chapter defines your research
methodology, your research sample, research instrument, etc. The research method
you choose will be driven by the literature (how have experts studied the problem
before you? What are the common techniques they used to answer questions such as
the one you have posited?) It will also be driven by whether you are working in a
professional environment. Chapter 3 is typically the shortest – 3 to 5 pages.
Chapter 4: Data Analysis and Findings - In this chapter, you document how
you analyzed your data, present the analysis, and report the results of what your
research revealed — just the facts. Your opinion as to what it all means and whether
or not the research answered your research question is for Chapter 5. The length of
Chapter 4 depends on your research methodology, but 8-10 pages is realistic.
Chapter 5: Conclusions and Recommendations - This chapter is where you
interpret your findings and answer your research question. Bring together the
experts’ opinions from Chapter 2, compare and contrast with your own findings, and
make recommendations for policy/practice improvements or modifications based on
your conclusions. This chapter should be 6-10 pages.
