Talk:Communication and Media Richness Assurance in High-performance Projects
Contents |
Feedback on Abstract:
Text clarity & language | Very good |
Description of the tool/theory/concept | I would recommend you to add a brief description of the Media Richness Theory (MRT), that you are focusing on. Perhaps you can leave the first part of the abstract to the introduction. The abstract should be a summary of your article, stating and describing the tool/theory/concept you are analysing throughout the article. |
Article purpose explanation | Good |
Relevance to curriculum | Relevant |
References | Missing references. Here are some guidelines from DTU Library: https://www.bibliotek.dtu.dk/english/servicemenu/find/reference_management/references |

Question 1 · TEXT
Quality of the summary:
Does the summary make the key focus, insights and/or contribution of the article clear?
What would you suggest to improve?
Answer 1
Does the summary make the key focus, insights and/or contribution of the article clear? Yes, the flow of the abstract is very good and natural. The language is very professional.
What would you suggest to improve? Maybe include some of the conclusions as it is an abstract and should present the findings in the article.
Question 2 · TEXT
Structure and logic of the article:
Is the argument clear?
Is there a logical flow to the article?
Does one part build upon the other?
Is the article consistent in its argument and free of contradictions?
What would you suggest to improve?
Answer 2
Is the argument clear? I think the argumentation and examples given are clear. I can see that some work is needed before it is done, but the work done so far is very good, and the argumentation is good.
Is there a logical flow to the article? The Introduction gives a really good introduction to how good communication is important. The order of the sections is very natural and I like the end with the case studies.
Does one part build upon the other? Yes, I like the idea that the argumentation goes from the core basis of human needs.
Is the article consistent in its argument and free of contradictions? Yes it is free of contradictions.
What would you suggest to improve? In the "Human Nature" section, an example of this seen in project management would be good. If some data of effective communication could be found, it would be good for the argumentation of why it is important.

It is a very clear abstract and I really like how you points out what you find most interesting, and how you work through the article applying tools and methods to cases.
No recommendation :)

I see clear the shape and structure of the article, I believe it will end be good when you fill in the blanks.
I am not sure about the depth you apply for the 2 sections "Humand Nature" and "Organisational Psychology". I guess time will tell if you have room for it, but maybe you could rewrite it shorter as a part of the introduction.

You have all ready done some references and I suggest you keep adding more as you work your way through it.
Remember that we should a least reference one or two of the standards from the course.
