ascilite 2009



I hope to present this small piece of my dissertation at ascilite 2009 if I finish writing it.

Complete a coherent write-up

As I struggle for months over the writing of my last few chapters of my dissertation, I begin to realize that I am actually missing the point. I am overly focus on delivering a perfect final product whereas what is actually required is learning from the process. Because what I am writing now will never be final, it will never be perfect. So, all I need to do at the moment is to focus on completing the task for obvious and various practical and down-to-earth reasons. I got to focus on the goal of writing a 'coherent, logical and hopefully interesting' dissertation and enjoy the process of tying it up. That is and will be my goal until June 2009.
