Personal Development Plan Paper

Question: Dicuss about thePersonal Development Plan Paper. Answer: Introduction: Reflective Account As a student academic research is one key part in my learning and academics hence it is important for me to understand my key skills that are important for me to become a successful academic researcher. Out of the information discussed in class I have realised that academic research is a complex procedure and it needs to be handled effectively in order to get favorable research outcomes. From the research that I had to do which is related to reward systems and employee motivation I have realised the importance of using the suitable methods to complete the study. As per Collis Hussey (2013) an academic research is mainly based on its choice of methods and during the course of research of employee motivation I had got the opportunity to understand and learn the ways to choose the right kind of method to complete a particular study. My approach towards the research study has been highly facilitated by the discussion regarding the essentiality of research philosophy, design, approach and strategy. Through the discussions in class I have acquired the knowledge of these key methods which will help me to organise and complete further research studies. The present study has helped to discuss the different aspects of research which has helped me to understand to do an academic research in a professional manner which will help me understand the nerve of a professional research (Garrison, 2011). My ability to conduct an academic research would surely change as from conducting this research I have gained idea about being ethical in nature and I have also understood the importance of gathering quantitative and qualitative data and their essentiality from the context of the research. For the present research I have had to frame questionnaires that have given me fair bit of knowledge about gathering research data which woul d help me to complete research effectively. A lot of contemplation goes into completing a particular research and I have developed that required skill to contemplate and invest profound thinking in a research especially to make effective decisions regarding the choice of methods applied in the completion of a particular research. I have developed skills to interpret given data as well as have an effective hold on analysing data in a descriptive data. As per Saunders et al., (2012) research work is a complicated procedure and understanding the different sections of research is essential and I have been able to do that with the help of the regular discussion and practical research works that I have been involved with. I have gathered ample knowledge about being right conceptually and the present research has helped me to do this. I have always thought that academic research are mostly done to let the student understand the procedure of the research but now I have realised that it not only helps to prepare a student for researches but also helps to get favorable outcomes which are extremely important for the student. As a student I have been able to understand the purpose of academic research and so, it has also helped me to be on the right track and most importantly helped me to grasp the overall knowledge of f raming an academic research which will help me in the long run.
