Week 10 & 11
This week, we carried on with our consultation and discussed the progress that has been made with our work. I explained to Andreas my intentions for the future as well as the timeline I had developed for the next few weeks. My advancement has been stalled for the past few weeks, and despite the fact that I am well aware that I ought to be doing more about it, I have not been making much of an effort to change this situation. Therefore, there wasn't really much to speak about
We were informed that there would be a presentation on our dissertation that we needed
to prepare for the week after that (week 11), and the format of this presentation is
pretty similar to the one that we applied in our first presentation. We discussed our
topic, including whether or not there will be any changes or updates to the title, as
well as our findings and our literature review. Additionally, we discussed what we can
conclude at this point regarding my literature review, study objectives, and
approaches.
In addition to discussing my area of interest and what I had learned about it thus far
from the materials I had read for my research, I also included a section in which I
discussed my objectives for the foreseeable future. In order to move forward with my
plans for the dissertation, I need to expand the scope of my research on the topic by
reading additional materials, locate additional articles that focus on the Asian market
in particular. Incorporate and develop my experiments and findings into my research in
the form of a critical journal, and discuss additional ideas in light of my findings.
I have a lot of work to catch up on for my dissertation as well, as I haven't touched it since submitting in my RPO. This week, I focused on finding journal articles to broaden my knowledge on the topic by using the online resources available. As I felt like whatever I researched on was scraping the surface, this time around, my goal is to find a more indepth literature on the topic itself.
