 Okay, there we go. Yeah. Hello everyone, welcome back. I just want to read one scripture, Proverbs 27 verse 1. Okay, and a simple thought that goes along with it. Proverbs 27 and verse 1 it says, Do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day may bring forth. Okay, do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day may bring forth. Well, if you recall, James also talks about something similar, right? Then James scripture records for us, you know, do not boast that saying that, you know, today tomorrow we will go there, we will do this, we will buy this, sell this and so on. But you add the Lord in that, if the Lord wills. So the focus is on boasting in arrogance and pride, and not on planning or having foresight and so on. Yeah, so that's just wanted to make that clear. But this particular verse, you know, do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day will bring. So it's not about fear or anxiety. You know, we know that, you know, all our times and seasons are in God's hands. So, you know, we know it's not about fear, it's our anxiety, but really about what is required of us in a day, you know, the responsibilities that come upon us, the demands that are placed on us on a particular day, right? So we, sometimes we think, okay, maybe I can do this tomorrow, you know, while we have the ability and the time to do it today, right, to complete it today, to finish something today. So the reminder is don't boast about tomorrow. So you don't know what demands will be there tomorrow, what responsibilities will be there tomorrow, what challenges will be there tomorrow for you. So don't boast about it. And the learning is that, you know, while we have the time and the inclination and the ability to do it, to finish something today, let's go for it, right? So let's pray and then we will continue. Father, we thank you for this reminder, for this exhortation, God, that Lord, while we know that our times are in your hands, Father God, safe and secure, Master. And we know that you lead us, Lord, into all that you have for us, God. Lord, your encouragement is that God, that we will not presumptuously boast about tomorrow while we have your presence, the abilities that you've given us and the time and the resources to do something, to complete something, Lord, to attempt something today. And maybe not, Lord, just procrastinate or delay the inevitable, Father God. But enable us to do it. Give us the strength, give us the emotional strength, the physical strength and the spiritual willingness, Father God, that we will do it, complete it, all that you've asked us to. And so we just want to give you all the praise and glory of this time in Jesus' matchless name, we pray. Amen. Amen. Okay, so this could very well be the last class before we, for the, for in campus e-learning and also online students, right? So from next Thursday we have our presentations, project presentations and also next Thursday, before that is the 4th of April, is when your submissions are going to be. So again, I will open an assignment where you can just submit your project reports. Okay, so just wanted to remind us about that. So it's India time, 9am, on or before, 9am, on the 4th of April. Okay, so I would request everybody to maybe, to aim for maybe even 2nd or 3rd of April. Okay, don't keep it till 4th of April, 2nd or 3rd of April and complete it. E-learning students, of course, you have another week, have time till 11th to submit your videos and also your project reports. So you have that. So we would request you to turn that in, especially for e-learning students. If you're uploading a video, you do it in your Google Drive and you share the link, put it on the discussion page. But please make sure that you have, you give me access, right? Most of the times when the sharing happens, I noticed, especially in the drafts that you send, that you don't give the access, right? So I'm unable to see. So this is for e-learning students. So once you put the video, you put the project report in the, in your Google Drive, please give me sharing rights, you know. Check in the permissions and this, that sharing section in the drive and make sure that it's given for me, you know, that I can read it, I can edit it, so that I can go through it. Okay, thank you. Okay, so today's class just want us to remind, I just wanted to ask, how far is it in your report progress wise? If there's any clarifications, any questions you could, you could ask and we can address that. Okay, it's going good. Jafina is going good. Okay. So there were some questions about, from the e-learning students, one of the students about the project report itself, you know, should we, should it be, we said it's a minimum of 25 pages and a maximum of 30 pages. So, so the question was, you know, is it 25 pages or 30 pages of content or should it include, you know, the table of contents index, etc. So it's actually the actual content of minimum 25 and maximum 30, okay, the actual content that you actually put in. So that's the thing. So, you know, if it's a title page that you want to have and if it's a table of contents, it's again, table of contents is optional, okay, because it's a small report. It's hardly 30 pages. So you, if you want to, if you're comfortable doing it, do that table of contents, it's optional. Okay. So the actual content, the actual content of the research and everything should be minimum of 25, maximum of 30 pages. Right. So, so that is the thing is leaving out the title page and the table of contents. So basically that's it. Right. So, so that's something that I wanted to share. Yeah, Jafina, you have a So, if we have any statistics, graphs or tables, do this, do that come under a content thing? Yes, it does. Your tables, your graphs, any diagrams, anything that would come under content, of course. And even if you have towards the end citation, I mean, your reference page and also maybe if there is an appendix where you're sharing the questionnaire, right, that would also be part of the content. I'm just talking about the table of contents. And probably, you know, it's like, yeah, if it's if it's going to run over to three pages or something, that won't be taken into account. So that is all. Yeah. Yeah. See, I'll also try and upload a, you know, a simple structure for the report for those of us who are doing it for the first time. Let me just see where I put it. Okay. What if it's less than 25 pages? You know, it can't be less than 25 pages, Rosalind. So that's the thing, you know, you can give some background for the research. Let me just share the format. I think it'll be, you know, it should be minimum of 25. Can't be less than 25. Because if the MLA format, you know, there is a font size, which is about 12 points or 11 or 11.5 points, you know, that's the recommended font size. And it's also, I think the line spacing. So with all that, I'm sure it'll, you know, you have to kind of manage it within 30 pages. So I'm sure it'll come to 25. Right. Let me just try and share a sample report. Sample structure, you know, all those things that you could actually have in your report. Just a minute. Okay. I'll try and upload it for both the e-learning and also for the online students. Let me share this page. Okay. So I'm sure you see this. See this title page. Okay, let me just increase the size of it. Okay, clear. Okay, so title page, it's optional, right? Like, you know, so if you want to do it in a page, it's fine. Otherwise, you know, okay, here it says 150, 200 words. That is also, it's a suggestion. Okay. So you don't have to strictly go by that. Let me just move that. So table of contents again is a, it's something that if you want, you can otherwise leave it. Okay, from here onwards, you know, these are good elements to have in your research paper, right? Introduction, literature review. Okay, if you've gone through any of these, you know, some theories or something that you studied, you've gone through some material, you can write about that methodology. Okay, what is the methodology that you used for your research? Did you use interviews? Did you use questionnaires? Did you use, you know, you went through some journals, went through some authors? Okay, and also you can mention why you chose that particular methodology. Okay, because it's, it's the most apt, most suited for your research. And this is the only way to get the most suited way to get the information for your research, etc. Okay, so there can be results, findings of your research, you know, you can use tables, graphs, right? And then, so this is when you're using the result, I mean, all this is suggested, it can actually help bring clarity to your project report. Okay, so you can report the data without any interpretation of it, you can just put the tables, etc. Then there can be a discussion of it, interpretation of the results. Okay, so this is what it means, whatever you have found out, interpretation, you know, why maybe a certain age group, you know, this is what you noticed, this is the trend. So you, you mentioned that, right? Analysis, explanation, anything goes in the discussion. Then you could also, you know, here, you could also mention any recommendations, right? It can be either in this section, or it could be in the conclusion also, but I think it'll be there better if you have it in the discussion, any, you know, recommendations, conclusion, summary, restatement of the research question or thesis statement, and then, you know, suggestions for further research, whatever. Okay, so I just put here recommendations, oops, oh man, yeah. Okay, so, so, you know, so appendix, appendix or appendices would be where you keep your questionnaires, your survey, you know, if you had an interview and the questions for the interview, you could mention it here, you could write it under this heading. Okay, so you could follow this simple structure, but use the MLA format. Okay, so structure, format, just wanted to mention that. I'll upload this at the end of the class so you can go through it again, right? Okay, okay, right. So it can be kind of a checklist, you know, have I mentioned this, have I included this? So the report can be well-grounded, so that's the thing. Okay, any further thoughts, any challenges? Yes, Divya? Yeah, Prasad, I just wanted to ask regarding certain things, like, as you said, the title page, does it have any particular format? Is it like one page? Yeah, it is. And then the MLA format gives you how to go about it. You can refer to the MLA format template, which is uploaded in the resources section and you can use that. Yeah, if you want to use the title page, you can use that, you can do that. Okay, so if I use the title page, then the same information does not need to be repeated in the first page, right? Like the course name, date, instructor and all that, because right now, I have not included a title page. I just directly am starting with my name and instructor name, course and date. But if I have a title page, then I don't need this, right? You don't need to repeat it, yeah, because you've already mentioned it there, your name, title, course name, whatever, you know, date, etc., time taken, whatever you want to mention, you can mention in the title page itself, so and you don't have to repeat it in the thing, so that's fine. Okay, and also regarding the page nation, does the first and last, I mean the first page require page nation or I can leave it or... You can start from where you actually start the actual content, so you can, yeah, so you can leave out the table of contents and the title page, etc., and you can start, yeah, that's fine. Sure, sure. And first, I also wanted to know what's the difference between like some places I'm seeing works cited, some places I'm seeing bibliography being used, right now in the format that you just showed us as references, so is there any difference between all these? No, no, no, it's the same, it's the same, yeah, yeah, it's the same. Okay, and also I wanted to check if the spelling, right, yeah, it would be different with the American version, the spelling can be different, so is that a problem? Many words there would be spelling said can be different. You can do a spell check in whatever, whether it's English, I mean whether it's UK or American, you know, for this thing, but if you, as long as you do a spell check and do a grammar check, I think it's fine, not an issue, because we didn't specify that it should be American or English, American English or UK, so it's fine. So since we didn't specify, you can use either, and yeah. Sure, sure. And for figures, if I'm using in the text, like even the figures, at the bottom of the figure, I can't specify the source and everything, right? It should, it need not be separately mentioned later on, right? Yeah, for the figures, actually, what is the, I forget, what is the template, what is mentioned in the template? How does it, how does the MLA format specify it? If you're opening up, you just go with that. Okay. I'm sorry, I can't recall. Yeah, they have in the script MLA format template three that you had shared. They have the figures, the name, along with the figure, just below it. Right. So that they actually number the figure, figure two, whatever, and then give a title, right? Yeah. So you can go with that. Okay, okay. Sure, sure. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. Then, Jeffina, you had one more. So about presentation, so how we will know when is that and turn to do the presentation? Okay, turn for presentation. Okay. Yeah, it's a good question. Like, what I'll do is I'll, I'll prepare a random list, okay, not alphabetically, not in any order. But I'll just probably use the system, probably charge you to prepare a random list, throw up a random list for the presentation. And I'll put up the list. Okay, is that okay? I'll put up the list. And so, but the thing is, everybody needs to be prepared. Right? You've already submitted, which means by third or fourth, you would have submitted everything. So you'd be prepared to present, you know, I will, I will, you know, put this by end of the month the beginning of next month, April 1st or 2nd. I'll put that up. So it'll be a randomly generated list. Okay, this is for the online students, of course, and in person. So it'll be randomly generated list. And I'll put that out. So each person will have 10 minutes. So I guess in a, in a class, we'll have about five, we might each of our classes will spill over to a little more than one, 15 minutes. Okay, just be, I just want to share that beforehand. So it might go a little more than one hour. Okay, so we will also try and see if we can have an additional hour, like in the coming weeks, maybe on fourth itself or maybe on 11th or 18th, we will see if we can have an additional hour so we can, we don't have to rush through. We can actually be a little more relaxed and spaced out. Let me just see how many, okay, so how many are there and listed. I don't think everybody gave their tities. So we have 18 or 17, I guess, 17 students listed. Just going through some have problem with their attendance. So they may not actually be able to participate in it in the final presentation, etc. Yeah, so 17, so 17 or let's say 16. Yeah, we need five days. We'll take an additional hour somewhere, maybe on the 11th or 18th, then I'll keep you posted. So 10 minutes. Some of you may finish within 10 minutes or maybe earlier than 10 minutes. That's also fine. But just try and make sure that you don't go beyond 10 minutes because I will anyway stop the clock at 10 and ask you to stop. Okay, so right. Just go through the rubric for the presentations. Like the categories, I think I present that also, right. Let's say for the, I think I've shared that. Not sure where I've shared. Okay, if not, let me, I'll share that with you also. I'll upload this along with this, right, the rubric for. I remember sharing that with you at some class. Okay, so okay, I see Rosalind's question. Just want to know if I'm interviewing the parents and there are 30 questions and 30 families. So should I interview, include my interview with them in the content like all of it? Or yeah, so you don't have to but if you want to, you can put the table and you can summarize it. Like you don't have to, the contents of each and every, you know, every respondent, every question, you know, that'll become too voluminous and you can't, you know, that'll, so you can't do that. So it'll be a summary. It'll be a percentage of, you know, who are answered what and maybe you can add some descriptive answers, you know, some, some things of some comments of note, some remarks, which the parents shared, which you feel is important enough to mention, you could do that. So you don't have to mention all the answers or all the responses to the interviews verbatim. You don't have to put that. Okay. Any And also, when we submit, should we submit the Google Docs alone or the, I mean, so, and then the document alone or the presentations? The document alone is fine. Not the, not your PowerPoint or anything. This is for, of course, the online and in-person students. But of course, the e-learning students will have to present the video. Okay. So the video might have the PowerPoint when you're capturing the video. The presentation would have that. So that is fine. Okay. Yeah, Lubega, you have a question. Yeah, I had you, sir, on your introduction saying that we should send the, was it on a line, a land learners or we online, when you say that we should do try to send things which are, which is the editable, it's a concern on my part. Oh, I see. Okay. No, no, no. This is for the e-learning students. So that they can give me access. So when they upload on a Google Drive, their report, and the presentation for them to give access, because the e-learning students, some of them, I notice they don't give access. They share it, they share the link, but they forget to give access, change the, you know, the, the permission thing. So, so that is what I mentioned. It's not for online or in-person class. This is on Amazon. So, right. I'm sorry. Tell me again. This is who is it? Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Okay. So, if this is a Google form, do we also list out the full responses or there's the question? So you can actually, it's a question. And the question also you can, I mean, you, you, you can actually put it as a heading. So it'll be each field, right? So it'll be a, it'll be a heading. Or you might, if a question is kind of brief, you can put the whole question. You just see how it works. So, when you're summarizing it, you're not going to put it in a Google form, right? You will, the Google form itself gives you certain graphs on the responses. Well, you could use that. You could use that. Or you can use an Excel sheet to suffice. So, I was asking about the appendices where we put all the questionnaires which is used. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So do we, in that space, do we also need to capture all the responses which we received or the questions should be just the empty. That's the format. Yes. What questionnaire you use? Just the format. Thanks. Pastor, praise to God. Like you said, about the attendance, I received the attendance notification for the first two months. And I saw my attendance for independent research paper happens to be 75% which will short of the minimum required attendance. But I'm pretty sure I've not missed on any single class of yours. And I did not join late or leave either. So I'm surprised to see that. And I did check with the admin team for a second time. And it seems that they have confirmed from the reports that it is showing 75%. And for the month of March, I think we had few, I mean, we did not have some of the classes for this month. So you know what could be done here. But but from my end, I was pretty focused for this whole semester. And especially, I've not missed out on any of your classes. Yeah, we can actually see it's very easy to check, you can just go through the videos. The videos will have the list of participants, right? Yes. Yeah, so it's, it's easy to check. And also the system captures. So this is only for the classes that we had. Whatever class was canceled. It doesn't consider. So it's only for the classes that we had where we recorded where the system automatically captures the who were the attendees. So it's based on that report only. So, so I'm not sure how, you know, I'm not sure how to answer that. So you could, you could discuss with the admin, bio college admin and clarify that because a, if it if the class is canceled, or, you know, like we had, you know, if typically for this class, we don't have, you know, like all the classes. So if it's canceled, it does not capture attendance. Only if it's a class that has gone live. So that is, that is one. So yeah, so that's the thing. You can, did you have like a bandwidth issues where you had to drop off the middle of a class? Like, I'm not sure if you had that kind of a challenge, Lyndon. Sorry, I can't hear you hear anything. Lyndon is speaking. Say something, Lyndon. I'm sorry, you can put it on the chat. Okay, so anyway, whatever issues that you have or challenges or clarifications about the attendance. And also Rosalind has the question, minimum time is 40 minutes, we attend, but time is showing less than 40 minutes, then you will be marked absent. Okay, I see. Okay. So if you actually log out a little earlier, or you you because of bandwidth issues or something, you know, you you dropped off and you couldn't log in. So those will also be taken into account. So, you know, you could, you could discuss with admin about that. Yeah, so I will not have access to those records. So you can check with admin and then clarify that please. Okay. Okay. So, lecture, are we free to send PDFs after after putting our work together? We, we save it as a PDF and then we send to you or we should send you a word. Yeah, you can say you can you can post it in the section where I will create an assignment and for submissions of all project reports. So it can be a PDF, it can be a Google Doc, can be a Word doc, whatever. It's fine. Okay, thank you. Yeah, okay. Yeah, so looking forward to the presentations. See, just work on that because don't leave it to okay, you know, you might have to because it's a whole lot of things. And you're planning for 10 minutes, right? Within 10 minutes, all the things that you did, you know, you want you want to highlight it. So you might have to plan the rate at which you present the content, you know, so so that you don't spend a lot of time or emphasizing a lot of things on things that are not necessary. You can just start to just start, you know, don't waste too much time on how do we operate a lot at the beginning and say, you know, I want to thank God for this opportunity, don't don't worry about that. I already know that, you know, you're grateful for the opportunity, etc. So just get into it and just say, okay, just introduce yourself and just say, just go get into the topic, right? So just wanted to tell you, so you might have to actually practice it and time yourself and practice it and so that you can finish within 10 minutes, right? Okay. And also, if you have a PowerPoint, it's a good idea to, you know, try sharing it, you know, open a Google Meet and practice sharing it. Or, you know, if it's, if it's a PowerPoint file, you could also convert it into a PDF. I find that a lot more convenient when I share things. Like you can convert the PowerPoint file into your into a PDF. You can just save as and save as PDF. And it says, okay, should I save all slides? You say yes. Then each slide comes as a page, you know, of the PowerPoint document. So it's much easier that way when you're presenting. I mean, but if you're used to, you know, if you're used to using a PowerPoint, that's fine, you know, but you, you can try this, try this out, convert it into a PDF and then presenting it. That's also fine. So those of you who especially log in through your phones, right? You have to practice it. It won't happen on that day. So please, I really don't know how that works. I've not used phones to, you know, teach a class or present information. So you might have to, you know, figure it out, practice it, and then do it, right? Especially if you're logging through a phone or any other device, apart from a laptop, try it out and see how it works, get used to it. Okay. Okay. Yeah, Zellitoli. Okay, well, presenting through phone, you know, like, if you open the other slide, the video does not come out, it happened in the last, in the second year, I think, presentation of the ceremony. So how, is it okay? Like, when we present the video should be on? Yeah, ideally, we'd like the, yeah, we'd like the video to be on, please. But is there a phone? Oh, the phone doesn't permit it. It's either the whatever your content you're putting on screen or your video. I see. It's one or the other. I see. Okay, then fine. You know, if there's a restriction like that, it's fine. Like, if it doesn't come on the same screen, that's fine. But we will have one question after that. So once you finish your presentation, you can exit out of the whatever your, you know, stop sharing the file. And then, when you answer that question, whatever, if there are, if there's a question, we need to ask you, then you could keep the video on and answer that. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Right. Okay. So for the questions, then shall we wrap up? Okay. So from my side, I'll upload this structure, simple structure with all these elements, and also the rubric for the presentation, rubric meaning what are the categories across which you'll be marked for the presentation so you can specifically work on those things. And yeah, so those things I will upload and also I will put up the list. Now list is again for the online and in-person students for your presentation. So it'll be a random list with the dates so you can come prepared, right? And I'll also mention earlier, if you have an additional class either on the 11th or on the 18th, if you have an additional class so we can, you can plan ahead and be part of that as well, right? Okay. Right. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Pleasure teaching this course. I think most of you, I mean, you did all the work. I just had to facilitate. So thank you. Looking forward to the presentations all the very best. God bless.
