Proposal (Draft 1)
Feedback
• Research Theme: Matches research problem
• Research Topic: Too wide
• Research Problem: Convert to sentence, not in a question form.
• Problem Statement: First paragraph – connect first sentence to second one. Why did the definition of gender made you think/argue about the ideal situation that products should be designed without gender steretype? Why do you pick toiletries to discuss this issue? Second paragraph – support your observation by showing the relevant visuals. Third paragraph, what made you hypothesised that gender stereotype designs contribute to people’s perception of their and/or others’ gender? Any research to support that?
• Citations: For research that has more than two authors, write “Tilbug, et al., 2015”.
• Research Objectives: Needs to be realistic with the level and duration of the study (14 weeks). I suggest, “To explore the possible ways where graphic design can contribute to genderless design in specific toiletry products.”
• Research Question: To match research objective.
• References: Need to have more research articles.
