- Create a literature review research matrix, which includes research concepts that can be found and connected to preselected published scholarly research.
Introduction
This assessment provides a practical opportunity to apply research skills to a literature research matrix.
Overview
For this assessment, you are being introduced to literature mapping as part of the preparation for a literature review. As you collect articles, the following resource can be used to evaluate their scientific merit.
- Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP). (2018). CASP checklist: 10 questions to help you make sense of a systematic review [PDF]. https://casp-uk.net/
- Instructions
This assessment consists of completing a research matrix, which is a type of literature mapping/organizing that uses a table format. This matrix includes research concepts that can be found and connected to the published scholarly research provided by your faculty. Four research articles have been selected for you to read and dissect for completing the research matrix (table). The articles for this assessment are posted in the Announcements area of the courseroom. In the Literature Review Research Matrix [DOCX], a sample article is completed for you as an example; you will need to complete the matrix for the remaining four articles.

Graduate students, online education, student engagement, inter-role conflict, intrinsic motivation |
Hypotheses: H1a Intrinsic motivation is positively associated with learning outcomes as measured by self-reported learning. H1b Intrinsic motivation is positively associated with learning outcomes as measured by grades. H2a Engagement mediates the positive relationship between intrinsic motivation and self-reported learning. H2b Engagement mediates the positive relationship between intrinsic motivation and grades. H3 The positive relationship between intrinsic motivation and engagement is moderated by work-school-family inter-role conflict, such that as conflict increases the relationship will weaken. |

N = 244 Online graduate students, average age of 34.34, 94% had FT job, 73.3% female, 57% had dependents. |
Quantitative Longitudinal/survey design |
Intrinsic motivation appears to be stronger when higher levels of student engagement are present. Researchers found a significant positive relationship between intrinsic motivation and learning as well as grade outcomes. Finally inter-role conflict seemed to weaken the relationship between motivation and engagement. When students feel more control over their course experiences, the outcome is more positive. |
