STAGE 7

Assessment point

By this stage, you should have (a) built the theoretical case for your dissertation (i.e., STAGE FIVE) and (b) determined the research strategy (i.e., STAGE SIX) that you plan to follow in order to answer your research questions/hypotheses. Before moving on to STAGE EIGHT: Data collection, this is a good time to take a pause and meet with your supervisor to make sure that you?re on the right track and there are no major problems before you proceed. It's also time to think about the write-up process, if you have not started this already.
