So today I met with my supervisor to discuss all things project related. I felt it was a very successful meeting and I now have a clearer route ahead of me to continue on with. The main focus of the meeting was to come up with a title for my project (which will remain unpublished for academic/privacy purposes), to receive advice on how to contact people when needing to obtain data and generally to make sure I’m on the right track – which it looks like I am (thankfully!).

I recently went searching through the library to try and find any relevant literature and I came across a very interesting publication. It contained a lot on information regarding my project area and even included some very interesting images; I’m hoping that it will give me a really solid headstart in my research and help to underpin my literature review if nothing else. I also found another book that I can hopefully use just to help me gain a better understanding into my specific area of focus.

I have also loaned out a couple of dissertation help guides, in the hopes they will keep me on track in my writing of the project and ensure I do so in the correct way and to the appropriate standard.

When I got home from my meeting, I went straight to my laptop and drafted an email to send to the author of one book, in the hopes of obtaining some much needed data, which is now sat in my drafts folder, whilst I wait for my supervisor to OK it’s content and structure – after which it will be sent immediately. Fingers crossed all will go well!

Apart from that I don’t think there is anything else to report. My main aim as of this moment is just to research and read, and research and read, and then just for good luck… to research and read some more lol.

Until next time…
