show synthesis
of your key findings (knowledge, skills and ideas) from your researchSynthesis means: “the grouping together of parts or elements, such as material substances or objects of thought, into a complex whole (opposed to analysis); combination” (Macquarie Dictionary)The research outcome is substantiated by evidence and examples from the research, and shows how the research question is resolved.Substantiate means: “to establish by proof or evidence” (Macquarie Dictionary)

Slide3
How do you substantiate?
by referencing the aspects of the research outcome to sources, using, for example, in-text references and thereby demonstrating the origin of ideas and thoughts
by explaining the validity of the methodology adopted and thereby demonstrating that it is able to be reproduced.Slide4
What needs to be included in my Outcome?
Performance Standard - Synthesis
The specific features are as follows:
S1 Synthesis of knowledge, skills, and ideas to produce a resolution to the research question. S2 Substantiation of key findings relevant to the research outcome.S3 Expression of ideas.
Fluency and Accuracy (spelling, grammar, vocabulary)
Appropriate for AUDIENCE AND CONTEXTSlide5
What does an Outcome look like?
The research outcome can take the form of:
the key findings and substantiation, which together form a
productExamples include: an essay, a report, an oral or written history, with appropriate in-text referencing and a bibliography and/or a references list; a multimedia presentation; a documented science experimentSlide6
or
the key findings and substantiation, with elements of or reference to a
separate product
Examples include: a supporting statement and annotated photographs of a product that has been created; an extract from a student-developed children’s story, with a record of the background researchSlide7
or
the key findings presented as
annotations on a product
, and substantiated by evidence and examples of the researchExamples include: a recorded dance performance with notes and a director’s statement. Slide8
Students negotiate with their teacher suitable forms for producing their research outcome, for example:
written results, conclusions, recommendations, or solutions to a problem or question (e.g. an essay, a report, a booklet, or an article)
a product (e.g. an artefact, a manufactured article, or a work of art or literature) and a producer’s statement
a display or exhibition with annotations a multimedia presentation and podcasta performance (live or recorded) with a supporting statementa combination of any of the above.https://www.sace.sa.edu.au/web/research-project/stage-2/support-materials/assessment-type-exemplars/rpb-research-outcome
