13、h a Dissertation Good morning, everyone. We will talk about how to write a dissertation in todays lecture, as we know dissertations have become an increasingly important component of higher education. It provides you with an opportunity to work independently on a topic that particularly interests yo

14、u. So, it is important to know how to approach your own dissertation in the first place. First, we will have a brief introduction of dissertation. Different subject disciplines may emphasize different features, but, broadly speaking, (1) a dissertation is a continuous piece of writing, arranged in c

15、learly placed paragraphs, in which an argument is developed in response to a central question or proposition. The line of argument is supported by evidence you have acquired through research, which you are required to analyze, and which supports or contradicts the various perspectives explored in th

16、e course of the argument. The dissertation then reaches a conclusion in the final section, which pulls together the threads of your argument, supporting, qualifying or rejecting the original thesis. It is worth bearing in mind that (2) an academic dissertation is not a piece of writing designed to r

17、eproduce information available elsewhere, but something new and expressive of your individual abilities to analyze and synthesize. In addition, the process of academic writing will help you to learn, by enabling you to work with concepts and information relevant to your subject, and thereby developi

18、ng your intellectual skills. (3) Second, we will come to the fundamental principles of writing a dissertation and you have to bear in mind the following key points. First of all, it is an extended piece of writing, usually divided into chapters. (4) So you should know the lower and upper word limits

19、 acceptable for your dissertation and whether you should be following a particular sequence of chapter headings. Secondly, it contains a detailed exploration of evidence. (5) The evidence referred to may be from published texts, or it may consist of primary data gathered by your own, first-hand rese

20、arch, for example, a sociological study of attitudes to gender roles based on research methods such as interviews and questionnaires. (6) Thirdly, you are required to be clear about the nature of the methodology you will use for gathering the evidence. That is to say, why are you collecting data or

21、analyzing evidence in that way rather than in another way? And also, it must be supported throughout by awareness of theory. Your argument should be placed within the context of existing theory relevant to the subject. Finally, it has to be presented in a professionally finished manner. (7) So you h

22、ave to be fully aware of the precise details about the format, layout and stylistic requirements of your assignment. Third, it is about how to manage your supervisor. Since a dissertation is an individually devised piece of work, you will be allocated a personal supervisor to support you while you a

23、re writing it. Do not delay in having your first meeting with her or him, as it is vital to discuss not only what topic you will start by exploring, but also how you can best work on your dissertation. Here are some aspects of managing your supervisor. (8) Firstly, let your supervisor know how much

24、contact and support you would like. Necessarily, you have to agree together at the outset on when you will meet and how best contact can be made. Secondly, ask for access, where possible, to past dissertations of the kind you are being asked to write, so that you can get a sense of their scope, stru

25、cture, tone and the methodology used. (9) Thirdly, consider contributing to the setting up of appropriate support groups or pairings with fellow students, so that you can clarify your own thinking by discussing it with others if this is acceptable to your supervisor. Fourthly, find an appropriate wa

26、y of mapping and monitoring your own progress. (10) I recommend you a checklist of tasks to be completed. (11) Lastly, you have to evaluate and respond to your supervisors feedback by making notes and reflecting on what has been said or written, then applying the feedback to the next stage of your r

27、esearch. (12) Fourth, we will talk about how to manage your time. Writing a dissertation can be very demanding in terms of managing your time and the process itself. It is a major piece of work and you are likely to have months before it is due for submission, so the dissertation sometimes causes pr

28、oblems even for people who are normally good at meeting deadlines. So, how to arrange your time? First, draw a typical weeks timetable on a large sheet of paper. (13) Show thorough information about your university timetable and other regular commitments such as part-time work and regular social eve

29、nts. Second, after marking in the essentials, as you see them, take a good look at where you could commit time. Look particularly for those odd hours which are easily frittered away doing nothing much, and see if you can turn these into study time, (14) so that some clear chunks of time are left for

30、 you to relax, keep fit, go shopping, watch TV and so on. Third, fill in your schedule with personal study periods. When are you going to work on your dissertation, and when on your other commitments? Take account of when you are at your best for studying, for example, can you work early in the morn

31、ing or late at night? (15) Regular work throughout your dissertation unit will mean less chance of any all-night, last-minute, nail-biting sessions during the week before it needs to be submitted. Now, to sum up todays lecture, we have introduced some methods to approach a dissertation in your study

32、. Before we finish, Id like to say if you want to hand in an excellent dissertation in the future, you also have to research your topic very carefully, so next time I will introduce to you the methods of selecting and researching your topics. OK, this brings us to the end of todays lecture. Thanks f

To many people, the job interview is a confusing, humiliating, and nerve-racking experience. (1) First of all, you hav

40、e to wait for your appointment in an outer room, often trapped there with other people applying for the same job. Then you are called into the interviewers office. (2) Faced with a complete stranger, you have to try to act both cool and friendly as you are asked all sorts of questions. Finally, you

41、go home and wait for days and even weeks. If you get the job, great. But if you dont, youre rarely given any reason why. The job-interview “game“ may not be much fun, but it is a game you can win if you play it right. The name of the game is standing out from the crowd in a positive way. Here are gu

42、idelines to help you play the interview game to win. (3) Firstly, present yourself as a winner. For example, the way you dress, speak, and move gives the interviewer more information about you than you would think possible. You doubt that this is true. Consider this: a professional job recruiter, me

43、eting a series of job applicants, was asked to signal the moment he decided not to hire each applicant. (4) The thumbs-down decision was often made in less than 45 seconds even before the applicant thought the interview had begun. How can you keep from being a victim of an instant “no“ decision? To

44、begin with, dress appropriately. This means business clothing: usually a suit and tie or a conservative dress or skirt suit. Dont wear casual student clothing. On the other hand, dont overdress: youre going to a job interview, not a party. (5) Furthermore, pay attention to your grooming. Untidy hair

45、, body odor, unshined shoes, a hanging hem, stains on your tie, excessive makeup or cologne, a sloppy job of shaving if the interviewer notices any of these, your prospect of being hired takes a probably fatal hit. (6) Moreover, look alert, poised, and friendly. When that interviewer looks into the

46、waiting room and calls your name, he or she is getting a first impression of your behavior. If youre slouched in your chair, dozing or lost in the pages of a magazine, if you look up with an annoyed “Huh?“, he or she will not be favorably impressed. What will earn you points is rising promptly and w

47、alking briskly toward the interviewer. Smiling and looking directly at that person, extend your hand to shake his or hers, saying, “Im Lesley Brown. Thank you for seeing me today. “ (7) Finally, expect to make a little small talk. This is not a waste of time; it is the interviewers way of checking y

48、our ability to be politely sociable, and it is your opportunity to cement the good impression youve already made. The key is to follow the interviewers lead. If he or she wants to chat about the weather for a few minutes, do so. But dont drag it out; as soon as you get a signal that its time to talk about the job, be ready to get down to business. After you settle down in the room for your interview, next, get ready for the interviewers questions. The same questions come up again and again in many jo
