Finally, submitted!

So here it is.

The result after nearly 8-9 months.

When seeing it binded, instant thought of "ohhh cant believe i actually did all that...oh no i don't want to go that phase again..ever!" easily appearred. haha


Some recap/note to self throughtout the whole process:

Before Proposal Stage - The difficult part was to find the topic! and formulating the research questions. The research qs kept on changing until the final draft version.


During Write Ups - The difficult part was actually on Chapter 3. I took nearly 2-3 months just doing that. Im doing purely qualitative research, and my knowledge on such instruments was 0%.Hence, the time taken.


The Longest Time I Spent - Chapter 4! Penat and at one point felt like giving up! Plus, it was during puasa time..zzzzzz


The Part that I like - NONE! haha even the buckram binding part sebab kopak duit ku


Last but not least, million thanks to my supervisor for her keen supervision, great support, valueable advices etc. To Jazmi, for all the exchanging notions, intellectual insights and such. and friends and family for being supportive and helpful. This is one hell of tiring processssss..

andd i love all ya''lll!!!

FInal Draft 2nd Version Submitted(hopefully it is the super final version)

Just submitted!
According to my supervisor, after I submit that, I can consider that as a final version without any improvement.
Phew!

Apart from the content, the task that left are:
1. reference list
2. list of figures
3. double check the in text citations
4. appendices
5. prepare the soft copy of findings & final draft

Hope I can complete that just within one week.
Then, before waiting for final words from my SV, I have to edit the conference paper!
Thank god my paper had been accepted in international conference. It's Global Learn Asia Pasific 2011 which will be held in Melbourne next year (March 23 - April 1).



My first attempt submitting paper to conferences and it was accepted and it is international. Syukur alhamdullilah.
but still, need lots of preparation on that; finalizing the paper, prepare the presentations & brush up my communication skills.
Ok now i can feel the nerves

List of 2011 International Conferences

I am wishing to get my paper published in international conference somewhere around next year.

So, by this few months ahead before the end of the year, I have to actually submit my abstract or full paper to which conferences I'm interested into.

Wish me luck people!

Writing a Good Abstract

Abstract is important to be clearly written because it would determine whether your paper is qualitfied to be published in conferences or articles.
Abstract is like the first impression. Of course we want people to see us to be very convincing and interesting when submitting the "Calling for Paper" submission.

So here is quite a useful guidance on How to Write A Good Thesis. What should be included, what is shouldn't etc.
