Research Methodology-Week 10 Feedback Form

The peer review process.

Dear Students, One of the important pillars of modern science is the peer review process. When you submit a research paper, it goes through a peer review. A scientist has to learn not only how to go through the peer review process, but also how to DO an impersonal peer review. So, in this course we have planned such that the evaluation for the last three weeks will be through a peer review process, where you will have to evaluate one another's submission.  In week 10, you are supposed to write a research paper on a topic from your discipline, and so is something you already know. But when you review somebody else's submission, it may not be in your area of specialization. Since you may not fully understand the content, you have to focus on the form. In my lectures, I have mentioned a few issues regarding the form. These are available point-wise in the book. You have to check if these have been adhered to, and have to mark accordingly. There are a few requirements for various components of the paper. For part-marking, you may assign marks as given in the parentheses: the title (1), abstract (2), introduction (3), body (2), conclusion (1), and references (1).  This is a part of the learning process. So, do it seriously, impersonally, and with a view to helping the person you are reviewing. SB

Domain Certification

Domain Certification helps learners to gain expertise in a specific Area/Domain. This can be helpful for learners who wish to work in a particular area as part of their job or research or for those appearing for some competitive exam or becoming job ready or specialising in an area of study.  

Every domain will comprise Core courses and Elective courses. Once a learner completes the requisite courses per the mentioned criteria, you will receive a Domain Certificate showcasing your scores and the domain of expertise. Kindly refer to the following link for the list of courses available under each domain: https://nptel.ac.in/noc/Domain/discipline.html
