CRT optimisation based on Left ventricular activation time

 
This is a Report to be present at a PhD meeting.
The report imperatively needs to include:
Background; Research question; Hypothesis and aims
You can find an example of what I am expecting on the “Example Upgrade Report” document.
The data has been collected accordantly to the “Data_Taken Protocol” document so please use this as reference for development of the report
On the study document entitled “Biophysical Modeling to Simulate the Response” – it was discovered that “The only metric to show a consistent correlation with the CRT response was the peak rate of cumulative activation in Left ventricle” – which is basically where my PhD thesis is around.
In the study entitled “Mechanistic insights into the benefits of multisite pacing” it was found that CRT response was more related with the peak rate of cumulative activation in Left ventricle assessed between the 10th and 90th centiles of the activation time – which is what I am assessing for my PhD.
I am expecting the final document report to be in the same format as the “Example Upgrade Report” document

ACTION LEARNING PLAN

ACTION LEARNING PLAN
You are required to complete the design of Research Proposal or Action Plan for an Action Learning Project that explores the focus area you have selected and explored in your literature review. This plan must include the following:

Fully completed Cover Page (title, author’s name, student number).
Introduction: what is it all about? i.e. the nature of the focus area – from material in Assessment 1A.
Significance: why is it important for ECE/primary education and for a teacher’s professional practice.
Background: This is not new work – it is essentially an elaboration of the Conclusion statement from Assessment 1 – Literature Review.
Research question: the specific question to be examined (a clear and concise statement of the aspect of the focus area you will be exploring, stated as a question that you will be exploring, along with all appropriate definitions/explanations).
Methodology and methods: a detailed description of the research approach and data collection method/s you would use to answer your research question (the type of research you are undertaking; how you will undertake the research, including descriptions of data collection and analysis techniques).
Research ethics: a comprehensive outline about the ethical issues for your proposed investigation and how these will be attended to by yourself in your plan. Material from Assignment 1 and in particular from your work on those Tasks in the Ethics modules can form the basis for a summary here.
Action: outline how you might implement any potential changes to practice as a result of some likely outcomes to your research.
Timeline: an outline of the proposed timing for the implementation of your plan (including the work already completed in identifying your area of focus and completing the literature review). Each phase of the project needs some dates and a suggested timeline.
List of References.
Your submission is expected to be approximately 3000 words (+ or – 5%) not including the List of References. As noted in the details above you may include some material that you have prepared for the earlier assignments. How this will be achieved without plagiarizing yourself will be clarified in class discussions.

Business plan

 
After meeting with your administrator, you have received the go-ahead to do a small-scale pilot project. However you need to provide some additional information.
First the administrator has requested a brief outline of the intervention along with the supporting evidence based literature.
You also are requested to outline your plan for getting support for your innovation which includes how you will employ Rogers’ theory of adoption of innovation (QI 105).
The administrator also requested that you identify the resources you will need to implement the project including time, staff, equipment, and supplies. Address how you will minimize additional expenses.
Finally you need to identify how you will demonstrate if your project is an improvement (QI 102). You need to identify a family of measures that include a process measure, an outcome measure and a qualitative measure. Each measure should include a description of the numerator and denominator for the measure so that everyone understands how to calculate the rate.
Your administrator is a busy person so she really wants an outline with these items and the reference list organized so that the key points are easy to find.
Paper Criteria:
1.Describes intervention based on evidence-based research literature
2.Uses theory to support the innovation and create a plan for implementation
3.Describes multiple types of resources that will be used, but shows how this will be cost neutral
4.Correctly identifies a process measure and clearly states how to calculate the rate
5.Correctly identifies an outcome measure and clearly states how to calculate the rate

Review

Its a general critical review as part of the course work based upon 11 articles. I need it Authentic and no plagiarism. Where I study it is strict and punishment will be debar from university.
Examination of theme two: The organizational prerequisites for
entrepreneurship and innovation
In this document the criteria used to examine the critical reflection in theme two are
outlined.
Examination theme two:
In this theme it is compulsory attendance to all sessions. We deduct 5 points for each
absence. We will allow absence to a few sessions without deduction of points. IF, you contact
course examiner and provide good reasons (i.e., did you study this topic in your bachelor
program?)
Preparation and active participation at the open innovation sessions (lecture, theory seminar
and case seminar) (15points). Preparation and active participation at the Service and Product
Innovation session (5 points).
An individual critical reflection based on all articles except those related to the open
innovation seminars and the Service and Product Innovation seminar (A 2000 word
individually prepared report, submitted in word format, 30 points). The theme of the
reflection is: “a critical reflection on the organizational prerequisites for entrepreneurship and
innovation”.
Following are the criteria that will be used to grade your critical reflection:
1. Can we see from your reflection that you have read and understood the literature that are
used in the reflection? Have you in your discussion identified and related to the overall
message in the articles?
2. Does the reflection cover the assigned literature? You may choose to exclude a few articles
or add some. BUT, this means you need to provide argument/rationale for you choice to
exclude assigned literature and/or add additional literature.
3. Have you shown a capability of building an argument of your own based on the referenced
literature? I.e., everyone can express a view….but here you should construct the view you
put forward from the referenced literature.
Are the formalities Ok? (according to APA referencing style, are your in-text citations and your
reference list in correct format?

A Corpus-based Study of the Grammatical and Lexical Errors Committed by Learners of English at Basic Education Diploma Level in “A” District in Omann

 

– The number of leaners: 4945 learners

– You need to transfer their pdf papers to text and made a DIY corpora then analyze the data.
The DIY corpora must indicates the errors and compare between the lexical and grammatical errors so I will also include the answer key file.
I will include all the needed file and some articles explaining

– Rationale for the study: (why you think the study needs to be done)
Learners keep committing the same errors year after year and by analysing the errors I believe that there will be a chance to find the reasons of the errors and help to avoid committing the same errors every time. The study will reveal the most common errors and will raise teacher’s awareness about the common errors made by Omani learners.

– Questions the study aims to address:
What are the most common grammatical and lexical errors committed by learners?
Which are more frequent errors, grammatical or lexical?

– Research Methodology: (how you intend to get and analyse data)
It will be a homemade corpus. Exam papers will be investigated by using corpus linguistic procedures. These exam papers are digitized and they will be from the Tests and Examination Administration Department in the Ministry of Education in Oman. They will be from first semester in the school academy year 2014-2015. The examinees’ age is about 17-18 years old. They have been taught English as second language in Omani schools since they were at the age of seven.

– The structure of the dissertation
Chapter 1:
Introduction (1000–1500 words)
•Says what the topic is, why you became interested in researching it, and discusses the nature of the issue or problem that the dissertation deals with.
•The research questions could also be introduced at this point.
•Finally, you outline the structure of the dissertation.

Chapter 2:
Review of literature and theoretical framework (4000-5000 words)
This may also extend to two chapters in some cases.
•Outlines the findings/issues raised by other studies that are relevant to your project.
•Should be state-of-the-art in its focus.
•Should be critical rather than just a descriptive list of studies you have read.
•Addresses contextual issues relevant to your study.
•Leads up to a statement of your research questions.

Chapter 3:
Methodology (approx 2000 words)
Generally includes:
•Description of participants.
•Description of the research method(s) and the procedures employed to collect and analyse data.
•How you have ensured validity and reliability of your data.
•Outline of piloting stage.
•Description of how ethical issues were addressed.
( I have contacted the authority in the ministry of education and they gave me a letter to receive the needed data. It took more than one month to receive the entire data file as it was the second semester examination time for the diploma sttudents and after that declaring the results so they were busy and even the computer processing the data that I need was slow.)

Chapter 4:
Results (4000-5000 words)
•Presentation of your findings as they relate to your research questions.
•If new themes emerged from the data, you can set them out here.
•Be critical in how the data is presented.
•Avoid merely listing answers to your questionnaire/interview guide.

Chapter 5:
Discussion (3000-4000 words)
•Compares and contrasts your findings to those of the studies you discussed in the lit. review.
•Did you find something similar to the other studies or something different?
•If different, why do think this was? What are some potential causes?

Chapter 6:
Conclusion (approx 1000 words)
•Summarises main findings (not a cut and paste job!).
•Outlines practical implications of the research by revisiting the research questions.
•Sketches future research possibilities.
•Discusses limitations and drawbacks of the project.
