Dissertation Conclusion and Recommendations

Jane 20 Comments

The final stage and chapter in your dissertation research paper is the conclusion and this is where you’re most likely going to be making recommendations, whether these be for future research, a government body or a corporations.

These recommendations probably won’t form an additional chapter in your research paper as they come after concluding summary.

 

Key parts of the chapter

The key area here is to understand that this chapter concludes (ends) your dissertation. You aren’t offering conclusions here, as these are already provided to the reader throughout the other various chapters in your work.

Presenting Your Dissertation Results & Discussion

Jane 7 Comments

When it comes to the point of presenting your dissertation results and discussing them you may be a little confused how to do this and so many of us are when we first do it. You should prepare what you want to look over in this chapter and more significantly, what you want to identify as significant results, patterns and focus from the primary research data you have collected.

You will want to plan what you say, because you will want to know what to cover in this chapter. This stage isn’t to include 200 or so graphs, figures and charts, but to establish an understanding of the data and say what it means. Therefore, you may not want to include all of the questions that you did ask in your research, but refer to the specific ones that gave you the most meaning.

Step 7 – Dissertation Primary Research

Jane 2 Comments

At this stage, the primary research phase, you will have most porbably written up the literature review of your dissertation, methodology, a draft introduction and also recognized that you are ready to complete the different parts of the primary data collection stage. You will want to understand that there are many different processes in this stage and many student prefer to do them in a number of different ways.

Step 6 – Dissertation Methodology

Jane 7 Comments

This stage of the whole research process will be significant to the rest of your dissertation paper as whole. You will want to understand what the different methods are for research collection, such as questionnaires, surveys, interviews and focus groups to name just a few. Some of these types of data collection methods will have sub-types to them too, which will further allow you to shape them to your individual research process and your own dissertation.

If we look at the different methods that you could use to collect data, they will be split into quantitative and qualitative types. And the types of data collection methods used will mean that the focus of your dissertation research project will move in a qualitative or quantitative way. However, it probably won’t be great to get to this point and then decide the methods that you are going to use to collect the different data.

Step 5 – Conduct a Dissertation Literature Review

Jane Leave a comment

When you are looking at the different stages of writing your dissertation, you will see that a number of guides look at the different stages of your literature search and review. This will be the point that you might actually get confused, as you will be looking at the information you are reading and never thought it could be as difficult as it seems.

Many students (and me included) look at the literature as a discussion of what is happening in the field of study at the present time and review the actual literature and say what points are important. The key thing that I and so many others miss out is the point to include arguments and meaning in this section of your dissertation paper.

Step 2 – Dissertation Research

Jane Leave a comment

When I am referring to the dissertation research stage of your dissertation, I am referring to the secondary research material that you will use to form the foundations of the actual dissertation research that you will be conducting.

Yes, you may be reading this and you will be wanting more information on a library-based dissertation, but, this isn’t what I’m going to be talking about, as this type of research process and dissertation paper I believe is much more complicated than the traditional empirically based one. This isn’t simply because you will be working harder or that you will be doing more things for it, just simply the chapters will form a number of literature review chapter – generally thee – and will be the main part of your dissertation paper.
