We  have to decide on what instrument we want to use based on the research that we are going to study include quantitative, qualitative and the mixed-method. For instance, for quantitative, we may need to decide to use the questionnaire while the qualitative we might choose to use the interview.  As my study is related to knowledge and attitude related to occupational safety and health, I am decided to adopt the questionnaire from previous study. Thus, i have tried to contact several of the researchers that related to the topic to ask for their permission in adopting their questionnaire.  I also got the replied from a researcher and was given a permission to use the questionnaire. After did a speed reviewed, i can see that all sections include...

In the first case, when saying about the population, we would have to ask the estimation of overall population in large space area. For example, the number of teacher in Selangor. is about 31.7 million people in 2016.  It is obvious that making an interview or distribute questionnaire to more than 30 million people and will required a very huge effort in many field. To make it, there will be long period of time, huge spent of money as it is necessary to employ many people to do interview, and distribute questionnaire. There're a lot of factors need to consider when applying the population and sampling method. Therefore, somehow we ”destroy” this element of the population. If we would have to try each and every battery of the population, we would keep none of them. Thus, what we should do in this situation is also to choose an appropriate sample and then we could take the appropriate general conclusions. Due to the reasons we have just mentioned, it is convenient in many in...

It is a search and evaluation of the available literature in your given subject or chosen topic area. It documents the state of the art with respect to the subject or topic you are writing about.

The chapter 1 have been started with the the introduction of research proposal. My mind started to stuck at the research objectives. However, the research objective is not the core of the subject for the overall study. Someone ever said to me, "the maturity of a thesis is based on the research gap, not the research objectives. From the research gap, we can think how to conduct the research, finding the solutions for the research gap". It is like we want to solve the world problem. The feel of reasoning in problem statement is like, the half of the thesis's heart have been complete. By starting the chapter 1, I can find several problems that related to my study. And of course because of my interest in occupational safety and health field, I do several reading to find the problem present to be investigate. Regarding to the readings, I could see that the implementation is not yet become our culture or in other word, I can say, the OSH Culture in our society. The knowl...

source of the picture :  https://elearningindustry.com/10-online-research-tools-every-online-learner-know In my own perspective Research Methodology is a specialized technique that is used to identify, select, a process, and analyze information on a topic of research problem. On average in the research paper, each section of the methodological element enables the reader to critically evaluate and draw a comparison to support the overall study. I think these sections of the methodology answer three key of questions in my mind : How is data collected or being generated? How is it beling analyzed? and what the researchers's finding about the issues they raised. To come out with the manageable research, the research proposal is compulsory to overview the first sight of what issues a research want to raise. Research proposal include 3 main chapter which are:- 1. Chapter 1- Introduction 2. Chapter 2- Literature Review 3. Chapter 3- Methodology.  These proposal ...

While waiting for the bus at seroja, I keep thinking. What am I got to do. I step into the gate of Mawar Colla...

It has been so long I did not update my blog. Dealing with life as student keep me fill my day. But it is not the reason because I still open my social networking such as facebook and twitter. So, what I need it to say, 'there is no excuse to not to write'. Yeah, it's called chosen, whether you want to write and do not want. Today, it was last class for ED550 with Dr Krish. For two semester, we get the same lecturer teaching for ELC subject. She knows us, and we know her too. So, it is easy for us to be discipline in ourselves to finish her given task. Well, from her class, I got something fantastic to be share especially on how to write and analyze the article. Of course, reading is something precious, but to improve the skill, we need to analyze on what we read. I am one of the weak student in English subject, but it is not the excuse for me to learn more from Dr Krish. You know, keep writing gives you many ideas. Whether you want to manipulate or just write your id...

Summarizing is a condensation or a shortened version of a text. Summarizing helps to capture the idea (key) of another author for fewer words than the original.  There are two type of summary. 1. One-sentence summary Often used in academic writing as a way to introduce the reader to a source and its author's central idea or thesis statement. It is where the central idea placed into.  2. Informative summary. Expressed the original author's main ideas, main supporting details, data and arguments. It is incorporated into longer work.  Characteristics of Good Summary 1. Appropriate length 2. Uses paraphrase 3. Include main ideas 4. Proper citation Simply about how to summarize a text 1. Read article carefully 2. Write one very broad thesis statement 3. Identify the main points of the article 4. Write the first draft of the summary 5. Rewrite your summary. 

I'm sure, everybody ever put the quotes in their life whether in diary, the status in social networking, on the wall and etc. Quoting is phrase that you get from someone, usually authors. An academic research paper are stronger through the use of quotations when we need to cite a key sentence which become source of material to  strengthen argument through another writer's work. When saying of putting the quote in our report, we need to know when to quote and when are not suitable to quote as quoting from someone who have been discover the sentence by their own effort need to be credit or else, we will be accused from plagiarist the phrase. In source citation, we always meet with the author's name, year and also, the page of where the phrase have been take. Some of that, we see the bracket after the citation. If the text was quoted in another sources, we need to put the word, 'cited in'. ..........................................................................

(source of picture:  http://writing.pppst.com/banner_paraphrasing.gif ) Paraphrasing; what can I define in my perspective is like take and put the sentence from the author into our own words. When we do an academic writing, of course we need to refer the expert report to differentiate and to analyze on what the author get. And some of their content need to be put and place in our academic skill in order to enhance the proving material and the discovery made.  While taken the phrase to be paraphrase, the good paraphrase has to document the authors’ material and using the specific language with knowing the source. It such you need to cite the phrase idea.    Let’s say you want to tell the knowledge from other sources such as book, magazine, newspaper, journal into your own paper, you should know and approach all the sentence by quoting your work from the original idea Once you cited the phrase from the author, it means that you tell the reader that...

 Through the sourcing materials, of course it would help us doing our assignment at the same time enhance the understanding about the topic. Sourcing material help us to get deep into what the case study is all about. It provides us with the information to support our assignment. The source you can find from the internet, books, magazines and others. There are lots of ways for us to find the material as this century; we being provide so many things to be referred especially we have accessible too for information searching that is internet.

(source of picture from   http://onverantwoordelijk.wordpress.com/page/13/ ) From what i have read in the article of plagiarism by Sean Price in September 19, 2005, the main idea of the whole article is about understanding the plagiarism and avoid it. Here a simple refection on what have I read and how I feel when the idea was stolen. I think all student know what is plagiarism. And there are types of plagiarism that we ever do it. Since we're at school. But in school, I admit that i never know what is meaning of plagiarism and we always do the discussion laboratory report by referring the text book (only) without giving credit to the author. It was when I was in school. (Old story). But become a student in university starting from diploma (and now I am taking my bachelor), I learn something strict to be followed, the sources of what I have refer and manage to analyse on what have I read in order to understand plagiarism and to make myself as individual who responsible to ...
