Academic Reading 5 · Planning Your Thesis
5 learning units · ~21 minutes
How to plan your thesis: turn a topic into an answerable question, base your schedule on your past experience, and break it down into milestones you can check. If-then plans get you writing, and when things stall, you identify the type of stall and contact your supervisor early. Here, reading, notes, and feedback from the previous sessions come together in your thesis.
