… IS A LEARNING PROCESS
You develope as a learner and as a researcher.
Thesis is an end result, but the process is important.
Each process is unique, but includes similar elements.
You are responsible for the process, but you are not alone.

WHAT IS IT?
It is a scientific written document - It is needed in the scientific field (LET)- It is structured certain way- It includes theoretical framework, which is a lens to
look through the phenomena- It includes empirical data (qualitative / quantitative /
mixed methods) (theoretical thesis is possible)- Instead of opinions, research is scientifically or
empirically evidenced
- It is a ticket to the doctoral studies!!

METHODOLOGICAL MAP, 1
The aim is to 1) reflect your previous experiences of
research processes: what kind of research have you done; what was your role in the process; how did you feel the process and what have you learned (topics, methods etc)
2) To find out and be aware your strengts and expertise as a group
In small groups, discuss with your peers and make your spesific methodological map, which represents your previous experiences as resources for progressing the thesis.

MY INTRESTS AND COMPETENCE, 1
The aim is to in start a thinking process about the possible topic of the thesis.
1. Discuss and share thoughts within your groupii. which areas of reseach you are at the bestiii. which theoretical frameworks you are interested
iniv. which contexts you are interested inv. which topics you are interested in
2. Once you discuss, formulate your topics in brief sentences and place them into the theoretical platform. What are your three conclusions about the result.
3. Place your topics into the collective (entire class) theoretical platform.
