summarise the various viewpoints relating to the topic from a
literature review and include two studies on the unit of the case

point of view.
Students should also attempt to identify and describe any common
failings or criticisms of the research.
Students should discuss and confirm their proposed case study with
the unit co-ordinator before the end of Week 8.

Case study analysis report
What is it?
The purpose of a case study is to apply the concepts and theories you have learnt about in class to a real life situation or scenario. A case study requires you to identify and research problems and issues and make recommendations for solutions.
How do I write it?
You are being asked to choose a topical (current) or contentious (causing argument) issue relating to aesthetics. You need to identify and summarise the various points of view relating to the topic. To do this, you need to review the literature in general and include a detailed literature review of 2 studies on the specific subject of your chosen issue.
When reviewing literature, you need to summarise the research findings so far, compare and contrast them, and evaluate the quality of the research by identifying the strengths and weaknesses.
As this case study is in the form of a report, it should be organised into sections with headings. The headings should be based on your assessment question.
Step 1: Highlight the key words in the assessment question.
Step 2: Choose an issue relating to aesthetics that particularly interests you. Brainstorm some possible issues you could explore and choose one that you can find plenty of information about. You should check your topic with your facilitator by the end of week 8.
Step 2: Divide 2000 words into how many paragraphs you will need (approx. 15 paragraphs, so 13 body paragraphs plus introduction and conclusion).
Suggested structure:
Heading
Content under heading

Introduction
See video resource Writing 1: Structure found here: https://learn.achw.edu.au/mod/page/view.php?id=61

Summary (1 paragraph)
Provide a summary of your chosen issue and define any key terms. What is the issue? What makes it important/contentious?

Main heading: Literature review (12 paragraphs)
You can use subheadings to help you organise your content.
Summarise and compare recent research findings relevant to this topic in general.
Be sure to include 2 recent studies that specifically relate to your issue.
To help you write about each study, use these questions as a guide:
What was the purpose of each study?
What methods were used to carry out the research?
What were the main findings of each study?
What conclusions did the researchers come to?
What were the strengths of these findings? What makes them important and valuable?
What were the limitations (weaknesses) of the studies?

Be sure to compare and contrast the studies throughout this section. In what ways were they similar and different? Which studies are most valuable? Why?

Conclusion
See video resource Writing 1: Structure found here: https://learn.achw.edu.au/mod/page/view.php?id=61

Be sure not to include any new information in the conclusion. Therefore, you do not include referencing either.

You should include future implications and recommendations for further study. What needs to be explored in order for this issue to be resolved/become clearer?

References – APA end of text and in text referencing
Appropriate for 2000 words: 15 references. You can have more if you wish.
