@ bananarama69- Any items that are too large/extensive in detail to include within the main body of your project. So yes, you can include articles and TV clips. *The Journal is a separate item anyway so doesn't get included in the appendix.*

@victoria10- Congrats on your fine results! :)

In the appendix you should put all or alot of the stuff that is relevant to your research but not crucial to it in the reports section etc.

You should;
Put a few surveys in.
Put a few interviews in.
Put a few cases studies in.
Or a few of whatever primary methodologies you used.

Also put in some secondary research things such as;
Some newspaper articles.
Some statistics of websites etc.
transcripts of tv shows etc.

;) I hope that helps you. Good luck! ;)

+1, certainly agree, basically a re-statement of what I said though :D.

Note, case studies are more incorporated through the literature review. Only include a transcript of additional information that you could have included.

I'm not sure if you are assuming I am talking about a primary or secondary case study. I am talking about a primary case study in which you would have conducted yourself.
I'm not sure which methodologies you used but if you have done a primary case study do NOT put this in the literature review.
A literature review is a review of existing information. It wouldn't make any sense if you were to talk about a primary case study in there.

;) I did mine last year and got full marks on the whole IRP, diary, plan timeline etc. I wish you the best of luck! ;)

I am referring to a secondary case study to include with quotations for your literature review. Exactly right, it definitely would not make sense; as you would put your primary case study in the section entitled methodologies. A secondary case study, as I previously mentioned; include a transcript in your appendix.

Geez, I think we confused the 2010 HSC'ers, with our lengthy explanations on this one! :lol:

I also, received full marks for all of my IRP components last year. Good luck to all for you for your future IRP's. Above all have fun and Best Wishes! :D

I quite agree. Ac91's explanation was a little confusing as it didn't clearly explain what type of case study was being used; hence people doing the IRP need to be careful where they place their particular case studies.
