Contrasting cultures and business models: Do you think women and men should perform the same or different roles? Are men usually the breadwinners and women usually the home-makers in your country?
1. Depth of literature review: your scope of review should be broad enough to sufficiently cover the focal topic. Although it is not the only (or the best) indicator, ideally, the number of core references (the papers you actually analyse and discuss in your essay) should be around 15 to 20.
2. Quality of references: use articles from academically peer-reviewed journals, research books, and publications by government or institutions.
3. Quality of your review: you should not only summarize major findings from the literature, but also critically evaluate them and identify contradictory issues or research gaps (if any).
4. Your own analysis of the issue: provide your own arguments which can be derived from the literature or logically developed by yourself. Supporting your arguments: use real world examples (statistics, cases, etc) to support your arguments. These examples need to be relevant and from reliable information sources.
5. Overall writing: essay structure (intro-body-conclusion), cohesive and coherent writing, appropriate paragraphing, free of typographic and grammatical errors.
