Talk:SMART Goals and Objectives

Feedback 1 | Reviewer name: Steffen Hansen

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

Good summary that captures what SMART is. Maybe it's a bit too focused on only "what is SMART", and i think the abstract should be a summary of the whole article, also application and limitations.'

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

In the section Big Idea version, i would add a bit more to each word, maybe give some examples.

In the Application section: I like the example, really gives a good idea of what SMART is, but i dont think it's a good idea to start a section with an example. First there should be a general explanation, and then followed by an example. That's my view anyway.

Limitations section: Again, good example, but i dont think an example should be the main part of a section in a wiki article. There should be a general section about the limitations also

Question 3 · TEXT

Grammar and style:

Is the writing free of grammatical and spelling errors?

Is the language precise without unnecessary fill words?

What would you suggest to improve?

Answer 3

In general it's pretty well written with good grammar, however there are some spelling and grammar mistakes. If you read it through im sure you'll find them.

There are some speaking-english somewhere, for example the last section "Also, the great thing about recipes is that they are a guideline of doing things". Of course i dont know what the teachers want from us, but i would imagine they want academic language

Question 6 · TEXT

Depth of treatment:

Is the article interesting for a practitioner or academic to read?

Does it make a significant contribution beyond a cursory web search?

What would you suggest to improve?

Answer 6

The article gives a good explain of SMART, but i think it's lacking in this aspect. There is a lack of connection to actual research on the topic (i realise that might be hard to find). What is the scientific arguments for using the method? Have there been no research? Maybe some research about the limitations?

Question 7 · TEXT

Annotated bibliography:

Does the article properly cite and acknowledge previous work?

Does it briefly summarize the key references at the end of the article?

Is it based on empirical data instead of opinion?

What would you suggest to improve?

Answer 7

They want a few lines about each annotated reference about why it's relevant.'

I think you need some more citation. For example the whole limitations section is written without a single citation.
