Pre-INT_Reading A -> Let your mind works

by Fajar Riyantika -

You will have to imagine this:

You are accepted in a not-so-popular university with fully funded scholarship, at the major you've aimed for years. You have observed that the campus and you learned that the department where you are involved in is newly emerged, as you will be the second batch; means you'll have only a batch of senior upon you.

Surprisingly, on the next day, you receive an announcement, telling your admission to one of the most reputable university has been granted, and you will be enrolled in the major which is considered the best in that university, and even among other universities. However, your inner call is not into that major. You chose it just for testing your capability and didn't even aim to succeed it. Your parents encourage you to take the second option and they say they will pay the tuition no matter how costly it will be.

SELT -> Dos and Donts in Presenting Your Proposal

by Fajar Riyantika -

There are several things you need to pay attention on when presenting your research proposal. Here are some of them:

1. Giving a very general statement that you find difficult to narrow down.
2. Fail in explaining the objective because of unclear research question(s).
3. Not having enough sources in literature review.
4. Unable to decide which research design to use, or fail in defining a design.
5. Fail to define the participants.

Now, think about your weakness. Which one you should improve?
