ABSTRACT
It is not enough that we feel confident in our work; we must be able to explain it to
others-in the classroom probably, in the laboratory possibly, in print certainly.
“Science” is about sharing, and if the people you want to share your material with
cannot follow the progression of your argument, cannot understand the reason that
you chose the question in the first place … cannot understand the reason you think
your choice of method is going to provide compelling evidence (even sufficient
evidence) … cannot understand the relationship you claim for your intervention and
the cited theoretical tradition … then this not just bad form, it is bad science.
