First Do No Harm, Second Tell No Lies

My thoughts and things. Parts of my life, memes, fun things and perhaps some insights. Mainly just a place for me to note things down that I feel other may be improved by sharing them.

Degree

Those that know me may know I'm doing a degree online with the University of Liverpool. This is made up of 8 eight week modules for 15 points each and one dissertation worth 60 points, the dissertation being allowed 8 months to work on. I started in February 2003 and must finish in February 2006. So time is now a little tight. Over the next two weeks I'm going to be even more busy as I'm now booked on two modules simultaneously. Luckily if I start mucking up the second I can drop it up to 2 weeks in.

So far I've done Computer Structures, Databases, Programming the Internet & Computer Communications & Networking. At the moment I'm studying Operating Systems. Next is Security Engineering. Don''t ask me, I don't have much of a clue what it is either - and since I keep breaking my university login I can't get to the synopsis. Or my grades. Which so far have been B (very good), not that that means anything where a degree goes. I think, I don't know, this is my first degree. Be gentle :)

The dissertation is the thing that worries me most. I have no idea about it at all.

From what I understand there are manuals and even software for dissertation format on the market.

As usual, I'll be more than glad to help. I've already edited one dissertation (it was accepted afterward)and one scholarly paper submitted to a scientific journal there in the UK.

Unfortunately, YOU have to pick the subject and do the research. Writing the paper is the easy part.
