 TASK 1 

DISSERTATION DRAFT

The task is to draft a 7000-word dissertation by Week 07 that critically evaluates and discusses a research problem using primary and secondary data. The draft should include:
  • Acknowledgements
  • Abstract
  • Table of Contents
  • Introduction (research rationale, problem statement, objectives, questions, conceptual framework)
  • Literature Review
  • Research Methodology
  • Results/Findings
  • Analysis and Discussion
  • Conclusion
  • Recommendations/Future Research
  • References, Picture Credits, and Appendices
At the start of this task, I searched for more articles that were related to my research. I spent time reading and reviewing different articles to find ones that were most useful for my topic.  

Once I chose the suitable articles, I wrote down the key information in the literature matrix to check for similarities or differences. This made it easier to understand the information and use it in my draft dissertation.

After finishing the literature review, I started working on the other parts of the dissertation.

 TASK 3 

TURNITIN REPORT

 Final Submission PDF 

For Task 3, I initially submitted the wrong document to Turnitin and only realized the mistake weeks later. Thankfully, Mr. Asrizal allowed me to resubmit the correct document during the second submission attempt, which gave me the chance to fix my error.

In this task, we need to adapt our dissertation into a concise research paper suitable for publication in The Design School's KREATE journal. The paper must follow the specific format and guidelines provided in the KREATE Raw Input template, without any changes to the set format.
