dc.description.abstract |
The workshop showcases how MSc/PhD thesis’s/proposal’s writing, especially the introductory chapter of the thesis or proposal should look like. Despite different writing styles and argumentative strategies of students, there are expectations demanded of them in this chapter. Such expectations will clearly show that you have a piece of scientific research to do in a convincing manner. If students fail -as some theses/proposals do- the examiners of your thesis/proposal are bored and are negatively biased with ease towards the rest of your chapters leading to failure. Drawing from Toulmin (1984) argumentation model, this straightens out this lingering issue and open the black box of this most daunting and yet critical chapter of your research in this workshop. |
