While these are example questions only and are notintended to represent the full breadth of the evaluation, they havebeen taken as a ‘neutral’ framework for examining the documents.2. The second part presents an annotated bibliography gathered by theteam during the research phase. The starting point for this was themain bibliography developed for the original TEC studies. This wassupplemented by internet searches and searches of journal databases.The researchers used a snowballing technique to identify furtherreferences from the bibliographies of the initial references located,based on access to bodies of knowledge by national consultants andother members of the team.This main difference between later versions of this document reviewand the first version is the refining of the sources.
