Reflective report
My personal contribution to the topic selection, problem definition, research
question, writing of topic approval submission, and team charter. How I
experienced this and what I learned from it
I obtained positive as well as a negative experience. I also contributed to identifying the
research topic that could be imperative in meeting the research objectives. Moreover,
the team charter is essential to classify the acts that are essential in obtaining a higher
competitive advantage (Pohl, et al., 2017). In this, I contributed to identify the steps that
are considered by out term in writing of the research questions. I also analysed that
topic identification is essential in getting higher competitive advantages. Moreover,
research questions could also be essential in conducting the study in matter. It is
observed that there are creation sources that are considered by me in the study named
websites, books, online and offline sources. It is illustrated that I read many things for
effectively writing the report (Artzt, et al., 2015). From the application of such sources, I
would also be able to effectively conduct the study and meet the research purpose.
Further, I also met my mentor and comprehend what we need to change in the report. It
would be effective in meeting the research task (Trelfa, 2018).
My personal contribution to the literature review report, i.e. search process,
summarising of relevant articles, designing the outline/argument/structure of the
literature review, writing up the literature review. How I experienced this and what
I learned from it.
In this report, I gained my understanding of different ways that are entailed in the
literature review named as search procedure and design of literature review. I deeply
evaluated the procedures which are effective in accomplishing the research task.
Moreover, I also collected the opinion and views of my teammates towards the research
issue. In additionally, I entailed many resources due to collecting reliable information
about the research matter (Petrova, et al., 2017). I understood that the literature review
section is used for critically evaluating the specific issue and reach a favorable
conclusion. I also understood that how we summarize the whole study in the least time.
I also understood that each person has suffered from different issues due to lack of time
and we are unable to manage the task on time that creates difficulty for us to meet the

research purpose. In this, I understood that the literature review section is most
imperative in evaluating research matters. The LR section is a vital part of the study that
could be effective in meeting the research purpose.
My personal contribution to the research methodology report, i.e. my role in
discussions about methods, sampling, questionnaire design, data collection,
analysis, and interpretation. How I experienced this and what I learned from it.
I observed that the research methodology section is effective in getting knowledge of
the data collection methods. I increased my knowledge of many methods, tools,
strategies, and approaches, which are entailed in this study to meet the research
purpose. I contributed my best to select suitable research methods for the meeting of
the research issues. I increased my depth understanding of the qualitative and
quantitative methods that are considered by us to meet the research objectives. I direct
my team towards the selection of the research method because this method was more
effective as compared to others. I contribute my best to the research. I have higher
knowledge towards the research tools hence I was able to inform each teammate about
the importance and difference between the methods that were imperative for us to
select the suitable research method. In this, I increased my understanding about the
survey through questionnaire which is effective in gathering the direct responses of the
research candidates towards research issue. I also increased my knowledge about
different source that are considered by me to meet my research concern. I also
increased my knowledge about different sources that supported to meet the research
concern. In addition, it is examined that the questionnaire could offer a way to the
individual to conduct this study in an effective manner. This tool will aid to researcher for
accomplishing the research matter. It is illustrated that the survey through questionnaire
could aids to investigator to meet the research issue. Moreover, investigator could also
facilitate to meet the research purpose. In addition, it is examined that this tool is
effective in getting reliable information towards research issue. The researcher would be
able to meet the research concern. I understood that how much the selection of suitable
method has been effective for the study. I would be able to effectively conduct the study
in the upcoming period.
