Description
This book offers a user-friendly guide to preparing a perfect dissertation. Rather than focusing only on how to draft the report itself, the authors provide readers with material on generating a researchable question, as well as methods for assessing blind spots and learning styles that may get in the way of completing a dissertation. Using examples from a wide variety of disciplines, the authors demonstrate how to write up results, develop appropriate writing skills, and ways to construct tables and figures. In addition, the book includes information on writing up qualitative research, using computer technology effectively to assist in the dissertation process and following ethical guidelines in conducting research.
