Today's goal

I will continue to revise my Chapter 3 based on my adviser's feedback.

Building stronger arguments while revising

For today, I made revision about the section of paradigm.


The way to organize literature, I make a table with the summaries, key points, author, participants, methods, and so forth. I also include key quotes that are applicable to my study. I made several tables under big categories which make me easier to read and find for the next time for other studies.
