meaning of a Project

Define a Project report & its objectives

Define a Project report may be defined as an interesting and challenging experience, which is often time-consuming, costly venture, and often complex. A project has a definite starting and finishing date, a clearly defined objective, and a defined budget. A project report is not only a piece of technical writing but also a medium of communicating to people about detailed aspects of the project.

Major components of a project report & its objectives

Major components of a project report

  • AIM/objective. A project has a definite aim. A project cannot be called finished until all the objectives/aims are fulfilled.
  • Team or Committee. When the objectives of the project are chalked out, A committee is formed with the motive of working together to complete the project successfully.
  • Specific Time Period. A project is restricted to being completed within a time period. The deadline is always set before starting a project so that work on the project does not longer indefinitely.
  • Different Yardsticks. No two projects are alike, every project has varied problems, demands, and scope. For instance, no two flyover projects are alike, connecting different types of roads, bifurcations, breadth, etc. are certain tasks that make a project different.
  • Budget. Limited funds are provided for the project and it is expected that expenses should not exceed the pre-decided Budget. (vi) Different Stages/phases. Every project has to pass through different stages and each stage has to meet its time limit. If asked, a report on each phase has to be made available to the authorities.

Objectives of preparing a project report

  • The significant aim of preparing a project report is to let the reader be appraised of the situation how much of the work has been completed and how much needs to be done within a definite period.
  • There are four basic sub-objectives: (a) One is to establish familiarity with the problem.
  • Establishing your expertise helps in building up competence.
  • Try to maximize the reader’s insight. One can achieve this by using wisdom in drawing attention to the aspects of the problem, on which one’s results crucially depend. Lay stress upon parts of one’s analysis which simply explains what should be done and why it should be done. Explanation is only describing your necessity as inference is not sufficient enough. If the client does not understand what the problem is by reading your report, then the client is likely not to implement your recommendations.
  • Minimizing the reader’s effort. Due to a hectic schedule, the client may not have time to go through your report thoroughly. If you will provide them with quick and easy ways to go through your project report the client is more likely to read it and understand it well.

Discuss different cultural variables

Eye Contact/Eye Movement

In India, the practice of maintaining steady eye contact during meetings is not followed as it is considered inappropriate to look straight into the eyes of seniors or women. It is a mark of respect or cultural etiquette in India. Even in Indonesia, China, and Japan keeping one’s eyes lower is standard practice. Contrary to this in U.S.A and U.K., maintaining eye contact during business dealings ensures confidence and builds up trust.

Handshake

Shaking hands with someone is a form of greeting or you acknowledge a person’s presence. In some countries, it is a standard practice but in countries like India or China, shaking hands with seniors or women is not considered appropriate. With women, it somehow is derogatory as it marks the unequal status of men and women within an organization.

Saying Yes/No

Saying a simple ‘Yes’ or `No’ also is different in various cultures. In India when the head is moved from left to right, it means ‘No and if the head is moved up and down, it signifies a ‘Yes’. Americans and Canadians shake their heads back and forth while in Japan, people move their right hand to say No’

Sign language

Universal audio or video symbols are recognized. Traffic and road signs, signs for public utility, and public services accessible to both literates and non-literates.

Body language

Certain gestures are culturally specific. Chewing of paans is considered a Bengali’s habit whereas loud voices and aggressive gestures are linked to people belonging to the Haryana side.

Audiovisual language

Nowadays a fusion of both Hindi and English languages has given way to the newly evolved ‘Hinglish’ language. ‘Yell Dil Maange More’ is one such example of an advertisement jingle using Hinglish language.

Define verbal or oral communication. Discuss its advantages or do you agree that there are disadvantages of the oral system of communication?

Most of the time we require verbal communication. In all-natural situations right from morning till evening, we speak to communicate. Oral communication requires the presence and also synchronization of both the speaker and listener. Each must respond to the body language of the other. Oral communication occurs in situations like face-to-face conversations, telephonic talks, presentations, interview meetings, public speech, etc.

Advantages

  • Immediate Feedback. Interjections and clarifications are a big part of verbal communication. A point can always be asked to be elaborated and is always again emphasized by the speaker so that immediate feedback can be given.
  • Time Saving/Economical. Verbal communication not only saves time but is inexpensive too as no stationery is required for this purpose in an organization.
  • The instrument for Persuasion. Just by sounding personal, a person can convince thus verbal communication is useful for persuading.
  • Correction was possible. It gives an opportunity to the speaker to correct himself and make himself clear by changing his tone, voice, pitch, etc.
  • Better Expression. When a person talks to a group he must be well understood. The group reaction is understood on the spot and an adequate conclusion is derived at. The addressee has the flexibility to change its speech according to the understanding power of the audience.

Disadvantages

  • There may be a wastage of time sometimes if speeches go on for too long without reaching any satisfactory conclusion.
  • As there is no official record of oral communication, the messages have no legal validity or importance.
  • Misunderstandings crop up as oral/verbal communication is not well-organized.
  • Inattention is a bigger problem in verbal communication as the audience gets bored of long speeches.
  • There is a lack of responsibility. As these messages are not recorded no one can be held accountable in case of mistake, inaccuracy, or untrue statements.

Discuss the steps involved in evaluating sources?

There are five steps involved in the evaluation of sources:

1. Structure

  • When you begin with a book, start by checking out the table of contents. Formulate the shape of your thesis/Research topic, then identify the 9 places that your question or thesis might be most directly addressed. Check out the subsections. If something is missing, try to substantiate Up from other sources.
  • Establish the context for discussion and determine the author’s intent by 6 going through the Introduction or Preface. You may find the author’s thesis statement there.
  • Check out Diagrams, Figures, Tables or Appendices and see what kind of things make it into the Endnotes section. Look at the topics of the Index at the back. Which of the entries has most page numbers listed next to it? It will provide pointers to the subjects that contribute to the real scope of the book.
  • In order to find out about the Journal Article, check out the “abstract” for the summary. If it deals with your Research topic, then go through the background or introduction section which will normally have “Literature review” or Summary of what others have mentioned/said. Now you can read the Body of the article for details. Thus the process starts with the Introduction and ends with the Conclusion making analysis of essays an easier task.

2. Purpose

Check out the title and first few paragraphs. What is the author’s intention or motive? Any assumptions to be challenged? If there is any bias? Find out the publisher or organizational institutional affiliation of the author. Does the author have a particular interest in influencing you one way or another?

3. Audience

Who is the target audience? Who does the intended audience appear to be? What interest does the target audience have in the issue?

4. Author

The first step would be to establish the credibility of the author? Has the authority and expertise of the author been established? Who is the author? Has the person been mentioned in other texts or bibliographies of other texts? What is the author’s standing in the scholarly community? Is the person a teacher or researcher from a reputable academic institution? Is the author respected and well-received?

5. The credibility of the source

Check out whether the source is relevant to your thesis or question? If the source argues thoughtfully and logically, helps you look at something differently, and gives you possible answers for your evidence for your thesis, then retain and utilize it.

Discuss the various steps of Researching Secondary Sources?

Steps of Researching Secondary Sources:

  • Start with a book search. Go to a Public Library or College Library or Web for government documents.
  • Search the online catalog. There will be keys for ‘Author’, ‘Subject’, ‘title’, and keyword. Initial searching for ‘subject would be suitable. Type in keywords from your research question or thesis. If there as primary texts involved, type those names, one can see anthologies criticism following the primary text in the academic Libraries.
  • If you have located the possible books, write down the call number reference number, so that you can find the Sources Then proceed to the exact shelf, locate the books, observing the nearby books, about 100 in case they might be of some help, Look at the Bibliography of the book for tips to other texts and follow up on those leads as well as keeping the one You are currently Researching on.
  • If your research paper requires updated information or analysis, you are currently researching on a combination of journals, the web, and the interviews might be better.
  • Journal articles can prove to be relevant in the same way as books for the particular research paper you are writing, unless you are specializing in the content of magazines (analysis) as part of your topic, focus more on academic journals.
  • Most Libraries have an “Index” menu on their catalog screens. Indices and other specialized periodical databases are categorized subject-wise Follow the online instructions or consult your reference Librarian for help if required.
  • The main problem with Journals is that you cannot take them out of Library and borrow them. If you find a journal (discussing) having your topic, record all the pertinent information and locate a place usually called the stacks. Your source would be probably bound with other issues from that year into a book format, tracked down on the shelf li any other book so you have to utilize it right there and then except in cases of your topic being found in the most current issue of the journal (which will be in the magazine’ or periodical reading room).
  • The web is a very crucial tool, but it has to be utilized carefully. Anyone can post fake information on the internet, posing problems of authority and validity. Some tools to be used are:

Define Para Language

Para language means ‘like a language’. Nonverbal aspects of the spoken words are known as Paralanguage.

Feature of Paralanguage

1. Voice

 When we talk of voice we have to keep three things in mind

  • Tone -The quality of voice is called tone. Volume is the softness or loudness of voice changed according to the audience and the distance between speaker and listener; a loud tone indicates aggression which has a negative impact.
  • Speed is another feature of a voice. Rapid speech indicates excitement or nervousness. Other qualities like clear pronunciation, good accent, rhythm are also important.
  • Pitch — High or low note of the scale. A high note is usually louder and heard at a long distance. A high-pitched voice is often jarring.
  • Stress on words — Stress on a particular word or syllable can convert the original meaning of the sentence.

2. Pause or Silence

An effective way of communication. A pause before or after certain words can make the words stand out from the rest. Silence can be used, deliberately to convey certain feelings like anger or displeasure.

The study of space as a communicative system is defined as Proxemics. It is the way people structure space around them. The study of distance in social settings. This can be done with visual cues, such as from eye contact or gestures, using sound and other physical properties like smell and taste. Proxemics meaning Proxemics refers to how the human body communicates with other humans and basic life functions. The properties of sounds, smells, temperature are used to not only establish a place but also size within that space among other things (e.g., social/behavioral rules.)

The 1st definition above states that proxemics is about understanding physical cues as well as immaterial ones such as eye contact or gestures in order for communication between people to occur. This is called nonverbal communication because while language can communicate words and meaning within sentences, these subtle physical cues are important in articulating a person’s social relationships with others around them. We also use other sensory avenues of interaction such as taste (e.g., eating) or smell(s). During my research on the issue, I came across how proxemics according to Myers some children may not become good at communicating by sound.

Americans divide personal space into four distinct zones

• The Public zone starts at about 12 feet from the person and stretches back to the limits of sight.
• The Social zone reaches from 4 to 12 feet.
• The personal zone ranges from 2 to 4 feet.
• The Intimate zone stretches from 0 to 2 feet.

These things should be kept in mind when we talk of space and surroundings

Surrounding

Our environment is well designed to communicate meanings.

Territory

 Human beings like to protect and control their space. One feels angry when someone occupies one’s assigned seat.

Seating Arrangement

A comfortable arrangement for 2 people at a table is to sit corner to corner. This allows for maximum eye contact. Thus, our choice of seats is another important feature of proxeni’s

In the 21st Century, women €1fe rising to the challenges, creating a space for themselves, and excelling in various professions.

These women are regularly covered in prominent magazines/ newspapers. These women stepped out of their homes, broke stereotypes, and are an inspiration to millions of women who are trying to emulate them.
