BETWEEN U & ME


 

Salam & Hi Guys,

I just wanna wish all of you GOOD LUCK for your final, GOOD LUCK for writing & choosing the right answers, GOOD LUCK for a good grade & GOOD LUCK for surviving in the exam hall!

Remember...DO NOT leave the answer space empty, write something (who knows that it could be 5%  of the possibilities would be the right answer?)
DO NOT leave any "love" or "hate" messages to replace your possible answers in the answer booklet....it would be a 110% assurance that it is not going to work...

LoVe you guys!

QUICK REVIEW 3 : Statement of Problem vs Significance of the study



Statement of Problem:

Should be written in  complete sentences not in point forms or suspended sentences. As the name suggests, you need to write them in full statement.

It clarifies what are the reasons a research/study need to be conducted.


Significance of the Study

In simple understanding, it should appear clearly to the reader why your research is so important to a certain group or people or community if it will be conducted. Tell the reader what is the benefit of your research/study to these people.


QUICK REVIEW 2 : Conclusion & Recomendation



Conclusion:
It states the concluding paragraph to wrap up the major findings highlighted in the findings & discussion section. It should be written in 1 paragraph to assure that it is the final say about the findings & discussions.

 Example: It is obvious that many of the undergraduates are aware that they need to enhance their English language skills especially during their job interview and also secure the job in their hand. 

Recommendation:
Also known as suggestion to improve the situation said in the concluding paragraph, in short the recommendation should be made based on the conclusion made in the section.

Example: Based on the conclusion, a few recommendation can be drawn to ensure that the students will enhance their English language command. One of the recommendations is, the student themselves have to grab opportunities or seek for extra classes to improve their English language skills such as communication skills, presentation skills and job interview skills.

Analytical = involves analysis of the data that were derived from the data collection. Examples: Research report, Lab report & Market survey report.
