Thesis skills – an online RSO support system for thesis students

Ever wonder how to write the perfect research question?

Problems in building raport with your respondents in the field?

Never really quite sure what operationalisation of concepts means?

Is a thesis stressing you out?

RSO has just designed an online learning environment on Brightspace called Thesis Skills. Thesis Skills is an innovative platform that is 100% online and 100% based on your needs.

The aim of this digital thesis environment is to give you tools to assist you in the thesis writing process. We have divided this process into topics such as planning, proposal writing, literature review, in the field and after the field, writing, etc. For each of these we have created a module containing information, exercises and self-tests. You do not have to take all modules, but can select the ones most appropriate for you. Mini-tests help you select these.  The digital thesis environment also contains peer support discussion fora to discuss difficulties with other students, and exchange tips and tricks.

All master thesis students (already busy with their thesis or planning to start) of RSO are invited to register for this online education platform. You can do this by sending an email to Jessica de Koning (jessica.dekoning@wur.nl)
