DBA Milestone: Research & Conference

So what is up with my DBA studies?

In my 4th Semester already. For this semester, we are required to write and publish research paper for a conference proceeding, attend 1 colloquium and some other requirements like progress meeting with supervisors and completing our Chapter 4 & 5.

My data collection procedures are halted for a bit due to waiting the long process of research ethical approval. In the mean time, I am still figuring out how to demonstrate the IoT application and select a simple one to be presented to my respondents.

Good news, I have written a review paper and presented in a recent conference organised by Indonesian university, the University Negeri Jakarta (UNJ). It was a cool experience, and really, after all my experiences doing presentation and whatnots over the years, I had little nerves doing presentation and require less time for preparations compared to how I was years before. I enjoyed sharing my findings and on my field of studies to people that I am actually looking forward for more opportunities to write and present my research. I will share the paper once it’s ready and published by the organiser. In the mean time, this was my presentation during the event – here in PDF format.

So next, I need to pay for my fees, figuring out where I am in my writing, and select and IoT application so that when my ethics were cleared, I am good to go and collect my data as fast as I can.

I am going to be good!
