CH#2 Basic Steps in a Research Paper MSCM 541 - SUPPLY CHAIN CAPSTONE PROJECT Identif y & develo p your Prelimin topic ary Basic Steps in a Resear ch Paper search for informat Locate ion material Selecting a topic can be the most challenging part of a research assignment. D r. Hasan Balfaqih Make notes & on the consult topic the Evaluate resources the quality of sources Cite your sourc es Organiz prope rly e ideas & write your paper Proofre ad The final step in the process is to proofread the paper you have created. Make sure the sources you used are cited properly. Make sure the message that you want to get across to the reader has been thoroughly stated. D r. Hasan Balfaqih D r. Hasan Balfaqih 10 Your presentation should be Split into 3 Distinct Component ❑1. Introduction. Consisting of one or two slides that introduce you and your talk. ❑2. Main body. The slides that constitute the bulk of your presentation and cover the main points that you wish to get across. How many slides you use within this section will depend on the length of the presentation and the information you wish to convey. ❑3. Conclusion. A few slides that summaries your D r. Hasan presentation and perhaps identify areas of further work. Balfaqih IN TRO D UC TIO N & BAC KGRO UN D ❑ This section provides an overview of your project. ❑ The Background allows you to introduce the project to the audience. ❑You might wish to include reasons why you feel you can do this research, and why the topic interests you specifically, and why you selected this topic in the first place. ❑ Overall, this section will set the scene for the project. D r. Hasan Balfaqih PROBLEM STATEMENT Identifies clearly the problem that the project is setting out to solve and why this problem is worth solving. ❑The research question formulates the research problem that you want to investigate. ❑Theresearch aim expresses the intention of your research study (what you hope to achieve at the end of your research project). ❑The research objectives outline the specific steps that you will take to achieve the above research aim D r. Hasan Balfaqih SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RESAERCH ❑Your problem statement can guide you in identifying the specific contribution of your study. ❑If the study’s result does not contribute anything to the body of knowledge, you must rethink your study’s objectives. D r. Hasan Balfaqih REVIEW OF THE STATE-OF-THEART ❑ Critically evaluate past and current research in the field, identify the gaps, and identify the position of your project. ❑ Identify how your project challenges existing beliefs or add to this understanding or body of knowledge. ❑ Identify research methods and strategies that may be usefully applied in your own research. ❑ Remember that LR is used to refine your research question and objectives; highlight research possibilities that have either been explicitly identified by other authors or have possibly been overlooked in the past. D r. Hasan METHODOLO GY 1.Explain the Methodological Approach in Use 2.Provide your Data Collection Methods (Qualitative or Quantitative) 3.Describe Your Analysis Methods (how was your data prepared for the analysis?, what kind of software have you used?, which tests have you used for this analysis?, etc.) 4.Evaluate and Justify the Methodology You Choose, and why other methods weren’t acceptable for the objectives you set. D r. Hasan RESULTS AN D DISC USSIO N Analyze the results and outcomes in light of the research question and explain how they contribute to knowledge of the problem. Compare and contrast the expected results with existing research and literature, and identify any similarities, differences, or gaps in knowledge. Discuss the potential limitations and challenges of the proposed project, and how they may impact the expected results. Highlight the potential significance and implications of the results for D r. Hasan the field, discipline, or society. Balfaqih CO N CLUSI ON ❑ Briefly recap the main points of the research, including the research question or problem statement, the proposed methodology, the expected results, and the potential impact of the project. ❑ Emphasize the significance of the proposed research and explain why it is important and relevant to the field, discipline, or society. ❑ State any limitationsor potential challenges that the proposed research may face and explain how they will be addressed. D r. Hasan Balfaqih SOME TYPIC AL Q UESTIO N S FO R THE PROPOSAL 1.What is the main problem you are trying to solve with your proposal? 2.How does your proposal differ from existing solutions to the problem? 3.What is your proposed timeline for implementing the solution? 4.What resources will you need to implement your proposal, and how do you plan to obtain them? 5.What are the potential risks/challenges, and how do you plan to mitigate them? 6.How will you measure the success of your proposal, and what metrics will you use. D r. Hasan Balfaqih These metrics should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and timebound (SMART). TYPIC AL Q UESTIO N S D URIN G THE PRESEN TATIO N 1.
