[MUSIC]. Hi, I'm Yin, and I'm here with Simon. In this activity we'll be talking about how you can make sure that you've been a good researcher at an end of a project, just like we are at the end of a course. And also this the opportunity for you to go back to the questions that you. That you post at the beginning of the course, and also develop your research proposals. So Simon. >> Thank you. When thinking about drawing together your research, think about three things. First of all, think about how you, your own sense of personal satisfaction in completing your the course. What that also enables you to do is reflect upon the value of your learning research question, engagement with the literature review, and indeed, your thoughts on time management and planning. And enhancing your ability to undertake meaningful research. The second thing to think about, is it convincing an audience? Be it your local one, in fact your family or friends, work colleagues or fellow students. Think about how you've been able to articulate and enhance your research question and proposal to them. And the third thing is to about the social impact of your research. That may seem like a rather grand claim for those of you beginning your research journey, but all of us have the capacity to make meaningful change in the world around us. Equally, as we draw this course to an end, do think about how your reflections upon research are going to be able to be articulated in a discussion forum and your own research proposal. We're looking forward to hearing from you in that regard and to seeing some meaningful research proposals that will enable you to go forward with whatever research project you're intending to undertake. Thank you. >> Though this question is still ongoing in the forum, so do join and also enjoy the last set of video highlights, following this, as well as four videos provided. We look forward to reading your research proposals, as well as the discussion surrounding them in the forums soon, and I hope you have learned as much as we have. Thank you. >> Thank you very much. Good luck. [MUSIC]. >> But, again, if, if, if, if it means one person for me personally, if one person reads my work, or reads my reasearch and actually takes something from it, for me that, that is, that is success in itself. >> A good piece of research is one that you can be pretty confident that you've been systematic in the way that you've done it. You are clear about the rationale and the arguments that you would put forward as to why you've done it in the way that you have done it. It would be a piece of research which you're proud of as well and which is interesting. >> Of course, there's some research projects that, perhaps, for whatever reason, I may feel I didn't get all the answers I wanted. Perhaps for whatever reason. Perhaps it was impossible to get the answers. Of course that also happens. Right? And that's really the nature of research. I don't think that you should expect to get all the answers to all the questions you ask. But rather be open. >> And maybe that actually also defines a good piece of research, honesty. >> actually, I think one of the tests is when you reread your work and you want to read it to the end. So, if it still entertains you or it still kind of speaks to you when you reread it, especially after a long period of time, I think that can be a really nice indicator.
