Not quite an impasse but just some motivation, questions to ask myself to help me approach the process in a problem-solving way and not become emotionally overwhelmed.

I am writing my Master's thesis and I find this lecture very useful

[@bushra2179]

Totally spot on. It's about writing your thesis into a narrative with a beginning, middle and end. Writing is a skill and like anything else needs to be worked on. Make noted about papers you enjoyed reading or found easy to read and what they did you liked. Have confidence in yourself with what you write. It doesn't have to be perfect the first time round

Very informative and useful session, very positive impact it gives

[@TheCinderellaPrincess]

I had to squeeze a thesis outline out of my mentors. Afterwards, I wrote my undergraduate thesis (36 pages in the summer). In the fall, my mentor and I edited it down to 25 pgs to apply for a PhD (I got in btw). Also through the entire process my other mentor told me to make a list of all the constructive criticism I received on each draft. It helped me so much to understand the common mistakes I made! Currently, I edit it myself when I see them. Now, I’ve been hired to TA for an English class and hired as a writing instructor (despite being a History major). Now I repeat my process with three classes of students and I hope - HOPE - it’s helpful during graduate school. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏾

[@BobsBlackwell]

@JamesHayton This is a good presentation. I think your work/ lectures on this may really benefit with some PPS&Q concepts for the Introductory section? Otherwise, to new researchers, your language is rather abstract and conceptual. There’s a really easy way of focusing research questions and Introductory sections by formulating a one-page PPS&Q… have a look at the lectures on here. Incredibly simple and allows researchers to get on with focus rather than conceptual abstractions.

[@James_Hayton]

Not sure what you mean. What language do you find too abstract?
