 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY AND TERM PAPER 1 (EVALUATION)

Course Code: MIT4106 Credit Units: 02

A term (or research) paper is primarily a record of intelligent reading in several sources on a particular
subject. The students will choose the topic at the beginning of the session in consultation with the
faculty assigned. The progress of the paper will be monitored regularly by the faculty. At the end of
the semester the detailed paper on the topic will be submitted to the faculty assigned. The evaluation will
be done by Board of examiners comprising of the faculties.

1. GUIDELINES FOR TERM PAPER

The procedure for writing a term paper may consist of the following steps:
1. Choosing a subject
2. Finding sources of materials
3. Collecting the notes
4. Outlining the paper
5. Writing the first draft
6. Editing & preparing the final paper

1. Choosing a Subject
The subject chosen should not be too general.

2. Finding Sources of Materials

a) The material sources should be not more than 10 years old unless the nature of the paper is
such that it involves examining older writings from a historical point of view.
b) Begin by making a list of subject-headings under which you might expect the subject to be
listed.
c) The sources could be books and magazine articles, news stories, periodicals, scientific
journals etc.

3. Collecting the Notes

Skim through sources, locating the useful material, then make good notes of it, including quotes and
information for footnotes.
a) Get facts, not just opinions. Compare the facts with author's conclusion.
b) In research studies, notice the methods and procedures, results & conclusions.
c) Check cross references.

4. Outlining the paper

a) Review notes to find main sub-divisions of the subject.
b) Sort the collected material again under each main division to find sub-sections for outline so that it
begins to look more coherent and takes on a definite structure. If it does not, try going back and
sorting again for main divisions, to see if another general pattern is possible.

5. Writing the first draft

Write the paper around the outline, being sure that you indicate in the first part of the paper what its purpose
is. You may follow the following:
a) statement of purpose
b) main body of the paper
c) statement of summary and conclusion
Avoid short, bumpy sentences and long straggling sentences with more than one main idea.

6. Editing & Preparing the final Paper

a) Before writing a term paper, you should ensure you have a question which you attempt to answer in
your paper. This question should be kept in mind throughout the paper. Include only information/
details/ analyses of relevance to the question at hand. Sometimes, the relevance of a particular
section may be clear to you but not to your readers. To avoid this, ensure you briefly explain the
relevance of every section.
 b) Read the paper to ensure that the language is not awkward, and that it "flows" properly.
c) Check for proper spelling, phrasing and sentence construction.
d) Check for proper form on footnotes, quotes, and punctuation.
e) Check to see that quotations serve one of the following purposes:
Show evidence of what an author has said.
(i) Avoid misrepresentation through restatement.
(ii) Save unnecessary writing when ideas have been well expressed by the original author.
f) Check for proper form on tables and graphs. Be certain that any table or graph is self-explanatory.

Term papers should be composed of the following sections:

1) Title page
2) Table of contents
3) Introduction
4) Review
5) Discussion & Conclusion
6) References
7) Appendix

Generally, the introduction, discussion, conclusion and bibliography part should account for a third of the
paper and the review part should be two thirds of the paper.

2. Discussion
The discussion section either follows the results or may alternatively be integrated in the results section.
The section should consist of a discussion of the results of the study focusing on the question posed in the
research paper.

3. Conclusion
The conclusion is often thought of as the easiest part of the paper but should by no means be
disregarded. There are a number of key components which should not be omitted. These include:
a) summary of question posed
b) summary of findings
c) summary of main limitations of the study at hand
d) details of possibilities for related future research

4. Reference
From the very beginning of a research project, you should be careful to note all details of articles gathered.
The bibliography should contain ALL references included in the paper. References not included in the text
in any form should NOT be included in the bibliography.
The key to a good bibliography is consistency. Choose a particular convention and stick to this.

 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY AND TERM PAPER 1 (EVALUATION)

Course Code: MIT4206 Credit Units: 02

A term (or research) paper is primarily a record of intelligent reading in several sources on a particular
subject. The students will choose the topic at the beginning of the session in consultation with the
faculty assigned. The progress of the paper will be monitored regularly by the faculty. At the end of
the semester the detailed paper on the topic will be submitted to the faculty assigned. The evaluation will
be done by Board of examiners comprising of the faculties.

GUIDELINES FOR TERM PAPER

The procedure for writing a term paper may consist of the following steps:
1. Choosing a subject
2. Finding sources of materials
3. Collecting the notes
4. Outlining the paper
5. Writing the first draft
6. Editing & preparing the final paper

1. Choosing a Subject
The subject chosen should not be too general.

7. Finding Sources of Materials

a) The material sources should be not more than 10 years old unless the nature of the paper is
such that it involves examining older writings from a historical point of view.
b) Begin by making a list of subject-headings under which you might expect the subject to be
listed.
c) The sources could be books and magazine articles, news stories, periodicals, scientific
journals etc.

8. Collecting the Notes

Skim through sources, locating the useful material, then make good notes of it, including quotes and
information for footnotes.
d) Get facts, not just opinions. Compare the facts with author's conclusion.
e) In research studies, notice the methods and procedures, results & conclusions.
f) Check cross references.

9. Outlining the paper

c) Review notes to find main sub-divisions of the subject.
d) Sort the collected material again under each main division to find sub-sections for outline so that it
begins to look more coherent and takes on a definite structure. If it does not, try going back and
sorting again for main divisions, to see if another general pattern is possible.

10. Writing the first draft

Write the paper around the outline, being sure that you indicate in the first part of the paper what its purpose
is. You may follow the following:
d) statement of purpose
e) main body of the paper
f) statement of summary and conclusion
Avoid short, bumpy sentences and long straggling sentences with more than one main idea.

11. Editing & Preparing the final Paper

g) Before writing a term paper, you should ensure you have a question which you attempt to answer in
your paper. This question should be kept in mind throughout the paper. Include only information/
details/ analyses of relevance to the question at hand. Sometimes, the relevance of a particular section
 may be clear to you but not to your readers. To avoid this, ensure you briefly explain the relevance
of every section.
h) Read the paper to ensure that the language is not awkward, and that it "flows" properly.
i) Check for proper spelling, phrasing and sentence construction.
j) Check for proper form on footnotes, quotes, and punctuation.
k) Check to see that quotations serve one of the following purposes:
Show evidence of what an author has said.
(iii) Avoid misrepresentation through restatement.
(iv) Save unnecessary writing when ideas have been well expressed by the original author.
l) Check for proper form on tables and graphs. Be certain that any table or graph is self-explanatory.

Term papers should be composed of the following sections:

1) Title page
2) Table of contents
3) Introduction
4) Review
5) Discussion & Conclusion
6) References
7) Appendix

Generally, the introduction, discussion, conclusion and bibliography part should account for a third of the
paper and the review part should be two thirds of the paper.

Discussion
The discussion section either follows the results or may alternatively be integrated in the results section.
The section should consist of a discussion of the results of the study focusing on the question posed in the
research paper.

Conclusion
The conclusion is often thought of as the easiest part of the paper but should by no means be
disregarded. There are a number of key components which should not be omitted. These include:
a) summary of question posed
b) summary of findings
c) summary of main limitations of the study at hand
d) details of possibilities for related future research

Reference
From the very beginning of a research project, you should be careful to note all details of articles gathered.
The bibliography should contain ALL references included in the paper. References not included in the text
in any form should NOT be included in the bibliography.
The key to a good bibliography is consistency. Choose a particular convention and stick to this.

 Dissertation Part- I (Literature Review/Problem Formulation/ Synopsis)

Course Code: MIT4303 NTCC Credit Units: 08

Guidelines: Literature Review

The purpose of the literature review section is not to report what is known about your topic. The purpose is to
identify what remains unknown thus establishing the need for your research study. It focuses on a specific
topic of interest to you and includes a critical analysis of the relationship among different works, and relating
this research to your work. It may be written as a stand-alone paper or to provide a theoretical framework
and rationale for a research study (such as a thesis or dissertation).

Steps to Adopt:

Step 1: Identification of topic.

Step 2: Identification of the literature to review. Step 3:

Analyzing the literature.

Step 4: Summarizing the literature in table or concept map format. Step 5:

Synthesizing the literature prior to review.

Step 6: Writing the review

Problem Formulation

The problem formulation consists of just one sentence and should make it clear to everyone what research
problem, you aim to address and to whom and where it is relevant. In other words, the problem formulation
is the heart (or core) of your thesis to which you should always return if you lose track during your further
research and writing process. The aim of a problem formulation is also to set a framework for your research
and a good problem formulation is essential for completing a good study.

Synopsis

The synopses should consist of:

• A 3 to maximum 5 pages anonymous summary, including an abstract with no more than 50 words.

• The topic number(s) and your indication of preference for dialogue or lecture presentation
must be clearly mentioned.

• Key diagrams
 • A References list.

• The originality and the main technical improvements proposed in your paper must be clearly
indicated.

• The synopsis will be headed by the paper title. The origin (University (U), Industry (I), University
in collaboration with Industry (UI) or Industry in collaboration with University (IU)) will be
indicated on the second line, next to the chosen topics and sub-topics 1 and 2.

Fonts

• Paper Title: Times New Roman 12 pt bold

• Headings: Times New Roman 10 pt bold

• Body text: Times New Roman 10 pt

• Formulas: SYMBOLS – MS Equation format – MathType Format

Assessment Scheme:

Continuous Evaluation: 50% (Based on Literature Review, interim draft, general approach, research
orientation etc.)

Final Evaluation: 50% (Final Presentation, Synopsis Evaluation)

 Seminar/ Research Paper

Course Code: MIT4304 NTCC Credit Units: 02

General Guidelines:

• A Research paper is primarily a record of intelligent reading in several sources on a

particular subject.

• The students will choose the topic at the beginning of the session in consultation with
the faculty assigned.

• The progress of the paper will be monitored regularly by the faculty.

• At the end of the semester the detailed paper on the topic will be submitted to the faculty
assigned.

• The evaluation will be done by Board of examiners comprising of the faculties.

The procedure for writing a research paper may consist of the following steps:

1. Choosing a topic area of relevance.

Description: The subject chosen should not be too general/vast.

2. Literature Survey

Description:

(a) The source material sources should be not more than 10 years old unless the
nature of the paper is such that it involves examining older writings

from a historical point of view.

(b) Begin by making a list of subject-headings under which you might expect the
subject to be listed.

(c) The sources could be books and magazine articles, news stories, periodicals,

scientific journals etc.

3. Gathering Resources & Fact Analysis

Description: Skim through sources, locating the useful material, then make good
notes of it, including quotes and information for footnotes.

(a) Get facts, not just opinions. Compare the facts with author's conclusion.

(b) In research studies, notice the methods and procedures, results & conclusions. (c)
Check cross references.
4. Outlining the paper

Description:

(a) Review notes to find main sub-divisions of the subject.

(b) Sort the collected material again under each main division to find sub-sections for
outline so that it begins to look more coherent and takes on a definite structure.

(c) If it does not, try going back and sorting again for main divisions, to see if

another general pattern is possible.

5. Drafting, Editing & Finalizing

Description: Draft the paper around the outline, being sure that you indicate in the
first part of the paper what its purpose is. You may follow the following:

a) Abstract detailing the purpose. b)

Body of the paper

c) Experimentation methods.

d) Statement of summary of Results

e) Discussion of attainments with conclusion.

Avoid short, bumpy sentences and long straggling sentences with more than one
main idea.

(a) Before writing a research paper, you should ensure you have a question/objective
which you attempt to answer in your paper. This question should be kept in mind
throughout the paper. Include only information/ details/ analyses of relevance to the
question at hand. Sometimes, the relevance of a particular section may be

clear to you but not to your readers. To avoid this, ensure you briefly explain the
relevance of every section.

(b) Read the paper to ensure that the language is not awkward, and that it "flows"

properly.

(c) Check for proper spelling, phrasing and sentence construction. (d)
Check for proper form on footnotes, quotes, and punctuation.

(e) Ensure Proper Citations are listed.

 (e) Check to see that quotations serve one of the following purposes:

(i) Display the proof of what an author has said. (ii)

Avoid misrepresentation through restatement.

(iii) Save unnecessary writing when ideas have been well expressed by the

original author.

(f) Check for proper form on tables and graphs. Be certain that any table or graph is self-
explanatory.

Generally, the introduction, discussion, conclusion and bibliography part should account for a
third of the paper and the review part should be two thirds of the paper.

Discussion

The discussion section either follows the results or may alternatively be integrated in the results
section. The section should consist of a discussion of the results of the study focusing on the
question posed in the research paper.

Conclusion

The conclusion is often thought of as the easiest part of the paper but should by no means be
disregarded. There are a number of key components which should not be omitted.

These include:

a) summary of question posed

b) summary of findings

c) summary of main limitations of the study at hand d)

details of possibilities for related future research

Bibliography

Reference From the very beginning of a research project, you should be careful to note all
details of articles gathered. The bibliography should contain ALL references included in the
paper. References not included in the text in any form should NOT be included in the
bibliography. The key to a good bibliography is consistency.
Research Paper Preparatory Guidelines / Instructions:
Format and Preparation

General

• Manuscripts submitted are expected to meet scholarly expectations in both

formatting and content. Although there are no maximum or minimum page
requirements, papers should be succinctly written, and authors are reminded that “…a
sound article on an empirical investigation is marked by a clearly articulated research
question or questions derived from the review of the literature and theoretical
framework, well-conceived design, a thorough explication of how you collected and
analyzed your data, and well-drawn, sensible conclusions that do not overextend the
design and outcomes obtained” (Klingner, Scanlon and Pressley 2005:

14). Papers that are judged to be unnecessarily lengthy, poorly written, theoretically
under-developed or based on poor science will not be accepted.

• All submissions should include, in the following order: (1) title page, (2)

abstract/keywords, (3) main text, (4) endnotes, (5) acknowledgements, (6)

references, (7) tables, and (8) figures. All pages must be typed and double-spaced

(including notes and references) using 12-point Times New Roman (or similar) font.

• Please use a 1-inch margin on all sides. Each table and figure should be on a separate
page. It is the responsibility of the student to submit manuscripts in the proper format.
Endnotes should be used instead of footnotes, and endnotes should be used sparingly. If
information is important to the reader, it should be placed in the text.

• Language- All documents must be written in English, using correct diction, syntax,
and grammar. UK English standards for spelling and punctuation are preferred.
Manuscripts that draw heavily on a foreign language for figures, modeling, literary
reviews, etc. may contain phrases or blocks of text in the foreign language, but must be
translated into English as well. Any manuscript that does not meet a level of English
proficiency consistent will not be accepted.

• Un-Blinded Title Page- The title page should include:

• The name(s) of the author(s)

• A concise and informative title

• The affiliation(s) and address(es) of the author(s)

• The e-mail address, phone, and fax numbers of the corresponding author.
• Abstract- The abstract should be between 100-250 words. When applicable, the abstract
should include (1) the sample size, (2) study design (i.e., survey, in-depth interview,
linear regression model), and (3) the source of the data. The abstract should not
contain any undefined abbreviations or unspecified references.

• Keywords- Please provide 4-6 keywords which can be used for indexing purposes.

• Text- The text of the manuscript should begin on a new page headed by the full title.
Notes, references, tables, figures, and appendices appear in separate sections following
the text, in that order. When citing your own work, please write “Smith (1992)
concluded…,” but do not write “I concluded (Smith 1992) …” Please either blind or
remove citations of working papers or papers in progress. Additionally, use italics only
for emphasis or titling, do not use field functions, use tab stops or other commands for
indents (instead of the space bar), use the table function (not spreadsheets) to make
tables, use the equation editor or Math Type for equations.

• Headings and Sub-Headings in the text indicate the organization of content. As a

general principle, please do not use more than three levels of displayed headings.

• Abbreviations and Acronyms should be defined at first mention and used

consistently thereafter.

• Citations in the text should provide the last name of the author(s) and the year of
publication. Include page numbers for direct quotes or specific passages. Cite only those
works needed to provide evidence for your assertions and to refer to important
sources on the topic.

In the following examples of text citations, ellipses (…) indicate manuscript text:

• If author’s name is in the text, follow it with the year in parentheses: “Duncan

(1959) …”

• If author’s name is not in the text, enclose the last name and year in parentheses:

“… (Gouldner 1963).”

• Pages cited follow the year of publication after a colon: “…(Ramirez and Weiss

1979:239–40).”

• For three authors, list all three last names in the first citation in the text: “… (Carr, Smith,
and Jones 1962).” For all subsequent citations use “et al.” throughout: “… (Carr et al.
1962).”

• For works with four or more authors, use “et al.” throughout.

• List a series of citations in alphabetical order or date order separated by semicolons:

 “… (Burgess 1968; Marwell et al. 1971).”

• Use consistent ordering throughout the manuscript.

• Use “forthcoming” to cite sources scheduled for publication. For dissertations

and unpublished papers, cite the date. If no date, use “n.d.” in place of the date:

“…Smith (forthcoming) and Oropesa (n.d.).”

• For machine-readable data files, cite authorship and date: “…(Institute for Survey

Research 1976).”

• Endnotes to the text are numbered consecutively; those to tables should be indicated
by superscript lower-case letters (or asterisks for significance values and other
statistical data).

• Equations in text must be typed. Use consecutive Arabic numerals in parentheses at the
right margin to identify important equations.

• Acknowledgements (where applicable)- Acknowledgements of people, grants,

funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the reference list. The names of
funding organizations should be written in full.

• References- References follow the text in a separate section headed “REFERENCES.”

All references cited in the text must be listed in the reference section, and vice versa.
Publication information for each must be complete and correct. It is authors’
responsibility to make sure that all information provided in the reference section is
complete and correct.

Using APA citation style, list the references in alphabetical order by authors’ last names;
include first and middle initials for all authors. If there are two or more items by the same
author(s), list them in order of year of publication.

If the cited material is unpublished but has been accepted for publication, use
“Forthcoming” in place of the date, and give the name of the journal or publishing
house. For dissertations and unpublished papers, cite the date and place the paper was
presented and/or where it is available.

If no date is available, use “n.d.” in place of the date.

If two or more works are by the same author(s) within the same year, list them in
alphabetical order by title and distinguish them by adding the letters a, b, c, and so on,
to the year (or to “Forthcoming “or “n.d.”).
 List all authors; using “et al.” in the reference section is not acceptable. Do not use
footnotes or endnotes as a substitute for a reference list.

 FOURTH SEMESTER

Dissertation

MIT4401 NTCC Credit Units: 18

Guidelines

1. Research experience is as close to a professional problem-solving activity as anything in

the curriculum.

2. It provides exposure to research methodology and an opportunity to work closely with

a faculty guide.

3. It usually requires the use of advanced concepts, a variety of experimental techniques,

and state-of-the-art instrumentation.

4. Research is genuine exploration of the unknown that leads to new knowledge which

often warrants publication. But whether or not the results of a research project are
publishable, the project should be communicated in the form of a research report written
by the student.

5. Sufficient time should be allowed for satisfactory completion of reports, taking into
account that initial drafts should be critiqued by the faculty guide and corrected by the
student at each stage.

6. The File is the principal means by which the work carried out will be assessed and
therefore great care should be taken in its preparation.

7. In general, the File should be comprehensive and include A short account of the

activities that were undertaken as part of the project; A statement about the extent to
which the project has achieved its stated goals.

8. A statement about the outcomes of the evaluation and dissemination processes

engaged in as part of the project; Any activities planned but not yet completed as part
of the project, or as a future initiative directly resulting from the project; Any problems
that have arisen that may be useful to document for future reference.

Report Layout

The report should contain the following components:

Contents:

• Title or Cover Page

Description: The title page should contain the following information:Project Title;
Student‟s Name; Course; Year; Supervisor‟s Name.
• Acknowledgements (optional)

Description: Acknowledgment to any advisory or financial assistance received in the

course of work may be given.

• Abstract

Description: A good "Abstract" should be straight to the point; not too descriptive but
fully informative. First paragraph should state what was accomplished with

regard to the objectives. The abstract does not have to be an entire summary of the
project, but rather a concise summary of the scope and results of the project.

• Table of Contents

Description: Titles and subtitles are to correspond exactly with those in the text.

• Introduction

Description: Here a brief introduction to the problem that is central to the project and
an outline of the structure of the rest of the report should be provided. The introduction
should aim to catch the imagination of the reader, so excessive details

should be avoided.

• Materials and Methods

Description: This section should aim at experimental designs, materials used.

Methodology should be mentioned in details including modifications if any.

• Results and Discussion

Description: Present results, discuss and compare these with those from other workers,
etc. In writing these sections, emphasis should be given on what has been performed
and achieved in the course of the work, rather than discuss in detail what is readily
available in text books. Avoid abrupt changes in contents from section to section and
maintain a lucid flow throughout the thesis.

An opening and closing paragraph in every chapter could be included to aid in smooth
flow. Note that in writing the various secions, all figures and tables should as far as
possible be next to the associated text, in the same orientation as the main text,
numbered, and given appropriate titles or captions. All major equations should also be
numbered and unless it is really necessary never write in “point” form.
• Conclusion

Description: A conclusion should be the final section in which the outcome of the work
is mentioned briefly.

• Future prospects

• Appendices

Description: The Appendix contains material which is of interest to the reader but not
an integral part of the thesis and any problem that have arisen that may be useful

to document for future reference.

• References / Bibliography

Description: This should include papers and books referred to in the body of the report.
These should be ordered alphabetically on the author's surname. The titles

of journals preferably should not be abbreviated; if they are, abbreviations must comply
with an internationally recognised system.

• Assessment:

1. Essentially, marking will be based on the following criteria: the quality of the report,
the technical merit of the project and the project execution.

2. Technical merit attempts to assess the quality and depth of the intellectual efforts put
into the project.

3. Project execution is concerned with assessing how much work has been put in.
 4. The File should fulfill the following assessment objectives:

Range of Research Methods used to obtain information Execution of Research

Data Analysis Analyze Quantitative/ Qualitative information Control Quality
