| 1.. Due to the fact that I submitted my annotated bibliography in blog before submitting it in turnitin, it is showing 80% similarity to my own blog.
2. After having read the 12 journals thoroughly, I felt that they would not cover all the aspects of my research, so I will need to find some more paper. Moreover, I also found that some of the journals I included in my annotated bibliography were not relevant to the scope of my research, hence excluded them. 3. Could not prepare the presentation slide due to pressure from other courses. |
