The literature review is an opportunity to demonstrate not just the breadth of your reading, but also your critical reponse to the current literature on a topic. This workshop is designed for students writing a standalone literature review, or undertaking a literature review as part of their dissertation. The session is also suitable for students who are not required to include a literature review chapter, but who will be engaging with existing research throughout their dissertations.
Lectures from NTNU courses IT3010 and TDT30. See http://www.idi.ntnu.no/emner/it3010/ for more information. This lecture gives practical information about the course for the students.
Six steps to help you select your research topicSets India
Are you one of the rare souls interested in research? Do you like the idea of planning an entire study and then sharing your findings with the whole world? Well, if you are a researcher, then you must know that planning and executing a study is not child’s play.
And the first and most time-consuming step of conducting research is selecting a research topic. Without a research question to answer, there will be no research, but finding a research question that you and a larger population would want an answer to is by far the most taxing task a researcher might come across.
Offers a brief description of the overall project trajectory and also shows how specific project phases are linked to learning goals. Offers some criteria for formulating meaningful research questions.

Do's and don'ts of qualiltative, quantitative and mixed methods writing, data...DoctoralNet Limited
Presented to an international audience of doctoral students online through DoctoralNet.com's regular conferences on Bigmarker (https://www.bigmarker.com/club_conferences/index/doctoralnet) this slide deck discusses things researchers should keep in mind. As part of our ongoing mission to increase graduation rates by offering dissertation help or thesis help, the ideas here were developed by the students in the room and are taken from our new book from Sage Publishing: Write Your Doctoral Dissertation or Thesis Faster: A Proven Map to Success - to be out Nov 2014
Introduction
In life, there are universal laws that govern everything we do. These laws are so perfect that if you were to align yourself with them, you could have so much prosperity that it would be coming out of your ears. This is because God created the universe in the image and likeness of him. It is failure to follow the universal laws that causes one to fail. The laws that were created consisted of the following: ·
Law of Gratitude: The Law of Gratitude states that you must show gratitude for what you have. By having gratitude, you speed your growth and success faster than you normally would. This is because if you appreciate the things you have, even if they are small things, you are open to receiving more.
Law of Attraction: The Law of Attraction states that if you focus your attention on something long enough you will get it. It all starts in the mind. You think of something and when you think of it, you manifest that in your life. This could be a mental picture of a check or actual cash, but you think about it with an image.
Law of Karma: the Law of Karma states that if you go out and do something bad, it will come back to you with something bad. If you do well for others, good things happen to you. The principle here is to know you can create good or bad through your actions. There will always be an effect no matter what.
Law of Love: the Law of Love states that love is more than emotion or feeling; it is energy. It has substance and can be felt. Love is also considered acceptance of oneself or others. This means that no matter what you do in life if you do not approach or leave the situation out of love, it won't work.
Law of Allowing: The Law of Allowing states that for us to get what we want, we must be receptive to it. We can't merely say to the Universe that we want something if we don't allow ourselves to receive it. This will defeat our purpose for wanting it in the first place.
Law of Vibration: the Law of Vibration states that if you wish on something and use your thoughts to visualize it, you are halfway there to get it. To complete the cycle you must use the Law of Vibration to feel part of what you want. Do this and you'll have anything you want in life.
For everything to function properly there has to be structure. Without structure, our world, or universe, would be in utter chaos. Successful people understand universal laws and apply them daily. They may not acknowledge that to you, but they do follow the laws. There is a higher power and this higher power controls the universe and what we get out of it. People who know this, but wish to direct their own lives, follow the reasons. Successful people don't sit around and say "I'll try," they say yes and act on it.

The Law of Attraction
The law of attraction is the most powerful force in the universe. If you work against it, it can only bring you pain and misery. Successful people know this but have kept it hidden from the lower class for centuries because th

Introduction to Environmental Science
FINAL PROJECT
The learning objectives for this class are the following:
-understand the basic environmental processes that shape the natural world around them.
-evaluate the reciprocal relationship between human and environmental systems.
-consider environmental problems from both a global and a local perspective.
-understand the impact of human decisions on the natural environment (both positive and negative).
-understand some of the ways in which scientists gather information, as well as, analyze and communicate their findings.
Everything we did in class was aimed at improved your understanding and skill related to these learning objectives. I don’t want you all to leave as scientists, but I want you to be able to navigate scientific information related to environmental issues with some understanding and ability to take it apart and use it to make well-informed decisions.
The final project is designed to give you the opportunity to reflect the improvement in your understanding and skill and to consider your relationship to the environment. For this project, you will select a behavior that you engage in, that has an impact on the environment. This behavior will be the foundation of a research question that investigate and use to inform your perspective on this particular environmental beha ...

– Contributions to the field, community and

14. • Helps keep discouragement away – celebrate how far you have
come at regular intervals
• Saves you time as you can quickly review your last thoughts,
even when you’ve been away from your work for a few days (or
maybe weeks)
• Add a new entry each day with a list of the things you did,
ending each with a note about what you hope to accomplish the
next day
• Reread and notate your journal with highlights or page markers
indicating where your ideas might fit into your proposal
