For example, I research RFID (the technology) related to inventory management (application area), I look at eCommerce (technology) and Real Estate (application area)#p#分页标题#e# Presenting Problem …inventory discrepancies leading to additional costs and delivery delays. Target Q2 – Discuss the most probable cause of the problem and hence name a project outcome that, when used by appropriate situation actors, may bring about change and resolve the problem situation by showing that it use leads to the Strategic deployment of Business IT assets (Max 200 words) Probable Problem Causes - This section allows to discuss the evidence for the problem situation (how do they know they have a problem), and hence discuss probable causes. It is usual to fix on a probable cause and then that is used to form a kind of loose hypotheses about must be done to resolve it. Proposed Outcome - Actors and Use Description – It is always useful to think about who will read ones project outcome and that helps to ensure it is written to an appropriate level and in a suitable style. Therefore, every outcome will have an actor or actors (person or persons); meaning that the actor will use the outcome to bring about change and achieve a particular result or effect (the target). It is essential that the outcome and actor match each other in the sense that the actor can credibly use the outcome.#p#分页标题#e# Change and Strategic Business IT Deployment implications - THE SBIT project must have an outcome that when used by an actor brings about change in the problem setting by means of a strategic deployment of IT assets.
Data Spotlight – Spotlight - that is highlighting the data that you need. For example imagine going through a pile of CVs and using a highlighter pen just marking the people who come from Singapore and work in IT support service. That is you are ONLY spotlighting or highlighting the ones where you will extract primary data and ignoring everything else. Data Extraction Activity – Activity - this is the main activity used to record that primary data and together with the spotlight it then effectively become a definition of the data. For example some common activities are: Account for, Analyse, Appraise, Assess, Catalogue, Collect, Compare. Research Approach – Research Style, Method and Data Collection Protocol - Research Method_These are problem solving frameworks or models (survey, case study, vignette, experiment, action research, etc) that are useful for various kinds of primary data research effort. Research Styles Data Collection Protocols Q4 – What is your single project aim and its associated project objectives (Max 200 words)#p#分页标题#e# Aim structure – the aim has four elements: activity, outcome, spotlight and target.Briefly, the activity is what you do to the spotlighted data to get the outcome which when used will generate the target effects. Objective structure – an objective has five elements: activity, milestone, spotlight, bounded and progressive. One notes here that progressive means that objectives tend to follows on from an earlier one and bounded means it must be able to be done during the project itself (as Opposed to after it is finished). FOR EXAMPLE: Objectives Q5 – What resources (other than trivial ones) will you need to complete this project idea (Max 200 words) In general resources it will cover such things as: software and other tools, equipment, skills, literature including any previous situation assessments, history and secondary documentation/data, research report and standards, time, training, funding, sources of help, useful websites, access to data and other permissions, security and confidentiality issues, data storage, lab facilities, but don’t be limited by just these or think that they all always apply but always make sure that what you ask for as a resources you can definitely get otherwise your project might fail. Q6 – How will you evaluate your project outcome (before it is used) and research practice (Max 200 words) Evaluation Plan for testing my Outcome - Testing and Evaluation - Recall that at the proposal stage, no project work has been done and no outcome is available therefore students are providing a plan of how evaluation will be done. You may think of the work taking time out at the end of the project to test the outcome and reflection so that lessons can be learned from ones practice. There are two aspects:#p#分页标题#e# Evaluate or Test your Outcome - map out what must be done to test the outcome when you finally get it but BEFORE it is used – it follows that project outcome evaluation is in most cases a paper exercise. Evaluate or Test your Practice – students hopefully will have a plan of what must be done, the methods and approach to be employed. So here students must say how they will reflect on the various choices they made; a plan for evaluating project practice AFTER it has been carried them out. Reflecting on practices will often uncover deep meaning about the nature, real purpose and intentions of you own deliberate (because you made choices) actions and assumptions and these may prove uncomfortable but are a necessary learning device. Evaluation Plan for reflecting on Project Practice - Evaluating & Testing Practice Basic Reflection - run through a series of general questions, writing down your thoughts; will be positive and some negative but all designed to show that learning has taken place: how well did I do it; was it successful? Could or should I have done it another way in parts or as a whole? Did I make any mistakes and were there any surprises? Did I learn anything about research? Did I properly identify constraints involved, including time management? Did I get the scale or scope wrong? Focused Reflection - In this section you plan how you will evaluate the main elements of your project work and again it must be done with commitment and honesty so that you can show you have learned from the experience. Here are several things you might consider.
The only possible interrogatives (words that signal a question is being asked) are: whose, who, whom, what, which,where, whence, whither, when, how, why, wherefore, does/is, s/are, and can. But commonly we only use: Whose, who,what, which, where, when, how, why, does/is, is/are, and can. Research Questions have 7 features: Interrogative (I), Outcome (O), Actor (A), Problem (P), Target (T), Spotlight (S) and Activity (a) although activity is often implied rather that stated. It is vital you understand that the order in which the six features appear in the Research Question will depend on the interrogative used. If you are not careful here and just stick the 6 features anywhere, choosing any interrogative you will end up with a question that makes no sense. However, the key to getting a good question usually centres on linking the outcome with the actor with the emphasis on the idea of the outcome being use by the actor to bring about change.#p#分页标题#e# EXAMPLE 1. What (interrogative) recommendations can be made regarding a BI strategy (outcome) to IT managers (actors) for dealing with suspected inaccurate KPI reports, (problem) based on a examination (activity) of the current performance management process (spotlight) in order to ensure that the business decision making process is reliable leading to increased company revenues (target)? 2. What (interrogative) server selection method (outcome) can be defined by an assessment (activity) of server hardware specifications, vendor service options, business requirements and existing selection models (spotlight) and then used by IT managers (actors) to deal with the total cost of ownership (problem) in order to maximise performance and manage IT costs (target)?
