REFLECTIVE PRACTICE OF THE RESEARCH PROJECT WORK I UNDERGONE
Description: For
an approved and supervised research project work I undergone, I began this work
by developing the topic of interest that will suit for approval of my project
by the Supervisor, though it took some days to brain storm until I was able to
get it right. I proceeded in undergoing my research studies through the
internet, books, articles and journals to get information including their
citations that will back up my research.
Feelings: During
the period of time for my research, I had some feelings of anxiety running
through my veins and I realized I still had a lot of work to do, I was quite
happy and thought that the research work will be easy like that of assignment which
I easily write and submit in time not knowing it will draw more time,
concentration and efforts to ensure I am doing the right thing. Ahead of my
thought, I had the feelings I may not make it to the dateline but successfully
I was able to succeed at all course. Most at times I ended up feeling quite
guilty in picking information from the internet as I am always afraid of plagiarism.
Evaluation: The
things that were good and worked well was the fact that I was able to produced
good quality work for the agreed deadline. Moreover, the fact that the
Supervisor did not agreed with some of my research studies made me to put more efforts
in order to get the right work done. That contributed positively to my work
ethic.
Analysis: I
think the reason that my initial division of each chapters by the project Supervisor
for me to go through, went well was because each chapters well carefully assessed
to ensure that they are in line with the research work.
Conclusion: I
learned that the fastest way to get the research work done is to divide and
work through it chapters, once the Supervisor approved the chapter, I took the
next chapters.
Action:
The
first action plan was to get my research topic approved for undergoing my research
project. The second plan was to budget for my research project, looked into how
to get my research done before the due date. I ensured I followed up with the
instructions given to me by my project Supervisor to ensure that I got the
right research work.
