Progress

From the last entries, the progress has been quite systematic. I have extensively gained traction in laying down an extensive comparison of my progress with other students assessments to understand and better aggregate my performance with the long term view of the course. Entries, I must connote that they have mainly been student-centred, descriptive, and imperative in evaluating the course content and the general overview of the course expectations at the end of the program (Carusone et al., 2006). Similarly, I have gained detailed significant learning experiences with critical thinking and analytical capacities critical for my expectations and objectives concerning the study.

Problems

Being a researcher at this juncture, there are myriads I have faced regarding the course and the development of the research questions. For instance, there has been a huge and growing pressure stemming from gaining positive results. Therefore, a specific research question is developed to generate a clear and extensive solution to the research problem (Carusone et al., 2006). Gaining this traction has never been easy, and with my course being a competitive field, the pressure to produce one of the prestigious research have quite sometimes lured me into plagiarizing the other researchers' work hence losing the originality of my research.

Plans

Some of the various challenges I am anticipating in the future regarding my research and generation of ideas are: establishing my thoughts upon the multiple findings of my study, addressing the limitations of the investigation, constructing a similar analysis in a new context, location or culture, or, of course, the reassessment of expanding theory, or the model/framework I will be addressing in my research.
