How to produce a good dissertation

• Start thinking early on about what you would like
  to write about. Consult as soon as possible with
  your supervisor for advice on the expected scope
  of your dissertation. Remember that you will not
  simply be writing about IT in Primary
  Education, but instead will be focussing on
  specific aspects, perhaps trying to solve a
  problem, querying currently held beliefs, or
  arguing a particular case or thesis.

  with a brief outline of the structure of your

  mixture of the two.

Content and Style

• Your dissertation is a piece of academic work an
  intellectual achievement. You are not expected to
  produce something completely original, but
  instead, to should show understanding of key
  issues and theories evidence of thought and
  insight critical analysis and evaluation, and a
  demonstration that you have been able to research
  a topic within your professional domain and
  present your findings appropriately. Simple
  description is not enough, and will result in a
  low mark.
• You should write in an appropriate academic
  style, avoiding colloquialisms, contractions,
  phrasal verbs and vagueness. You do not need,
  however, to use long, over-formal vocabulary you
  should aim at all times for clear and concise
  expression.

Content and Style

• You should normally avoid too much personal
  language (I, my etc), although opinions on
  this vary. As a rule of thumb, only use it when
  you are describing what you actually did and when
  you are expressing personal opinions, probably in
  your conclusion. Dont refer to yourself as we
  unless you are describing some sort of groupwork,
  and dont refer to yourself as the author its
  pompous and confusing.
• Avoid using he/she, her/his etc. The best way
  to avoid this and still be non-sexist is to make
  the subject plural whenever possible. (For
  example, Teachers should always be in control of
  their class.)

Referencing

• Acknowledgement of your sources is a vital and
  integral part of the academic process. If you do
  not do this, particularly at dissertation/postgrad
  uate level, you could be accused of plagiarism.
• By the time you do your dissertation you should
  be very clear on how to do this. If not, check
  with course tutors or in course literature what
  the preferred method is (normally at Birmingham
  City University it is the Harvard Method) and
  make sure you know how to use it. It can be a
  complicated area, but there are many guides and
  staff to help you (us, for example).
