6 Tips to Writing an Effective Dissertation for College

0

Working on college assignments might seem to be an easy task. However, most of the students find it to be challenging when it comes to writing dissertations. Below are some of the dissertation tips that can help in making the process of writing a dissertation an easy one.

Setting the Tone

The key to drawing the attention of your readers is by ensuring that you set the right tone for the essay. This is determined by your target audience. There are plenty of dissertation essays on the internet that you can read to identify the best tone that should be included in yours. When you type “pay someone to write my dissertation,” you will be amazed by the bulk of results that you get. This means people have been paying others to write their thesis. Why not do it too.

Dissertation help can be very useful

If you are not confident about the topic of your dissertation, don’t wait to score a poor grade. Get someone to write your dissertation and be guaranteed a good grade. Time management is one of the important aspects of students. You still need to study for your final exams and therefore, some help on your dissertation would be very helpful. You can also check some of the helpful tips to make the writing process an easy one.

Manage your writing and resting time

Dissertations can be lengthy, and therefore, if you are not careful, you can end up overworking. Such overworking makes it difficult for a student to be productive in their classwork. Therefore, ensure to manage your time properly to ensure that you get enough rest. That way, you will be re-energized to write the best dissertation possible. Balance the time that you spent in writing the dissertation and that spent in sleeping or doing other relaxation activities.

What is a literature review?

A literature review is the section of a dissertation that explains what other authors had to say about the topic. This is mot involving a section of the dissertation since it requires the writer to carry out thorough research on credible sources. It is also important to know how long should a literature review be. This will make it easy to know the amount of research that you should carry out.

Structural Considerations

In addition, ensure that you have understood the structure that you are going to use while writing the dissertation. That way, it will be easy to complete all the sections without facing any challenges. You will also not skip a section, which could result in you scoring a low grade. You need to familiarize yourself with the dissertation format before you commence the writing process.

A dissertation is an assignment not an encapsulation of your life’s work

Sites such as Resumethatworks.com argue out that your personality is reflected in what you write. When it comes to writing a dissertation, you need to understand that it is just an assignment and not a reflection of your life’s work. Therefore, focus on researching the topic as much as possible without getting personal. This way, you will be able to come up with a masterpiece. If you make it a part of your life’s work, you might limit yourself on your ability to write a perfect dissertation.

Write by sections, not by chapters

Dissertations follow a defined format made up of different sections. In order to ensure uniformity of the information that you write, ensure to write in sections rather than in chapters. Writing each chapter separately can result in the repetition of information, which is not a desirable characteristic of a good dissertation.

Critical attitude to your work

Having a positive attitude towards work enhances your ability to write a good quality essay. You can do a thesis review to ensure that you are confident and positive about the topic. This would make it easy to come up with ideas that would contribute to the dissertation. Avoid choosing a complex topic since this can affect your attitude in writing a good dissertation. Focus on what interests you.

Categorization of your work

Plan your work into categories to make it easy for you to write each of the sections effectively. It even seems easy with the different categories since dissertations tend to be lengthy. Therefore, avoid getting bored in the middle of the writing process and break down your work into sections. You can even decide on the specific sections that would work on each day.

Be mentally strong when it comes to feedback.

Essaywritingservice.ca provides students with pre-written dissertations which they can use as an example when planning to write theirs. Given the amount of time spent on writing the length dissertation, negative feedback could be disappointing. It is necessary to be strong and ready for any kind of feedback since some might require you to revise a huge section of the essay.

Concisely, the above college tips would be really helpful when writing a dissertation. Focus on a topic that interests you most, and the rest of the work will flow smoothly. We understand that dissertations are not one of the easiest essays to write, but with the right strategy and tips, it can turn out perfectly well.

Blake Shelton Readies “Fully Loaded: God’s Country” Album For December 13

0

Blake Shelton has been Loaded and Reloaded. Now with Fully Loaded: God’s Country, Shelton is bringing things full circle with both new music and recent hits on his upcoming release out December 13. The 12-song collection will feature seven hits from previous albums and five new tracks, including the three-time CMA nominated smash, “God’s Country.”

“Well, I knew the label would come up with some plan to release an album,” joked Shelton. “I’ve been vocal about how much I like this new way of releasing songs more frequently. It keeps me excited and gives me the opportunity to find the hot new song that I love and get it out to the fans quickly. I think they like it too. With five new songs on this album, you’ve got “God’s Country,’ ‘Hell Right’ and a few more that haven’t come out yet – maybe I wasn’t supposed to say that. But the fans will hear most of the music on Fully Loaded before it hits the streets in December.”

Five-time CMA Male Vocalist of the Year Shelton looks to add to his accolades this year with his multiple nominations. “God’s Country,” the fastest country single in the past year to reach one million track equivalents, is nominated for Video, Single and Song of the Year. The smash hit became Shelton’s 26th No. 1 on country radio, where it remained for a multi-week run, in addition to his 16th No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The country superstar also earned a Musical Event of the Year nomination for “Dive Bar,” his collaboration with music icon Garth Brooks.

Shelton’s new single “Hell Right” reunites him with his “Hillbilly Bone” pal Trace Adkins. Penned by David Garcia, Brett Tyler and Michael Hardy, the song is nearing Top 20 on the country airplay charts.

Between putting the finishing touches on Fully Loaded: God’s Country, Shelton has a few select tour dates and is currently filming for the next season of The Voice, which premiered Sept. 23. The Grand Ole Opry member also remains focused on his Ole Red partnership with Ryman Hospitality. The newest addition to the collection of restaurant and entertainment venues will open in Orlando next year and joins locations in Tishomingo, Nashville and Gatlinburg.

National Album Day Launches A ‘White – Label’ LP Auction

0

With this year’s National Album Day set for 12th October – one of the events being staged as part of a week-long build up that will celebrate our nation’s love of the album will be a ‘White Label’ Auction of around 300 white-label LP test pressings.

The auction – the first of its kind to be held – will take place the weekend prior on Saturday, 5th October at 11.00am. It will be hosted live onsite/online for UK and international collectors by the music memorabilia and vinyl records specialists Omega Auctions from their Newton-Le-Willows (Merseyside) base.

The explosion in sales of vinyl in recent years has created a wealth of ‘white label’ test pressings – produced to ensure the sound quality is as the artist intended and so called because there is no sleeve/label artwork at this stage. With as few as 5 or 10 of each being produced, these first-off-the-press copies are typically checked by artists and their representatives and are much sought after by fans and collectors.

The breadth of British music will be represented in the sale, including early 60s/70s recordings from David Bowie (Decca), The Who (My Generation), Eric Clapton (Slowhand), Dusty Springfield (Dusty in Memphis) and The Specials (The Specials – signed), to more contemporary offerings such as a signed copy of No.6 Collaborations Project by Ed Sheeran. There will be discs from the likes of Liam Gallagher (As You Were), Coldplay (The Butterfly Package – signed), Paul Weller (Stanley Road), Arctic Monkeys (Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino), Kylie Minogue (Step Back in Time), 2019 Mercury Prize shortlisted Foals (Everything Lost Will Not Be Saved Part 1) and Anna Calvi (Hunter). One of this year’s National Album Day ‘album champions’, Mark Ronson (Late Night Feelings), also features in the sale

The catalogue will be live online by 20th September here.

Century Surfers (Roddy Colmer and Jamie Gutfreund ) + “The Storm” hit iTunes Top 50 Alternative Chart in Canada

0

Canadian indie alt. pop/rock project Century Surfers — including 10-year multi-band scene staple Roddy Colmer and popular news anchor-turned-music man Jamie Gutfreund — are out with their debut single, “The Storm” — and promptly reached the Top 50 alternative chart on iTunes Canada.

To set the scene, Colmer’s the lead vocalist while Gutfreund is on guitar. The former is known for a decade-plus of dominating the scene as lead singer/songwriter of local rock/reggae outfit Rebel Emergency before unleashing two albums with electro-rockers Most Non Heinous. Most recently, he’s run with a solo pursuit; his most recent release Afterglow landed at #2 on the Canadian singer/songwriter charts.

For his part, Gutfreund is a name and face recognizable to the Toronto-area’s early risers through his work as co-host/anchor of the top rated CP24 Breakfast Weekend show, and as remote host for the city’s #1 breakfast news program, and among the resident anchors and reporters on CP24’s breaking news team. Suit and tie begone, however, he’s easily found on guitar moonlighting for various bands city wide.

Having become fast friends through a shared affection for all things 90s rock, the duo first came together with Colmer’s solo album, Afterglow, in mind. “We were thinking he’d support it with guitar, but it quickly spiralled into a completely different direction…” Colmer recalls. “We love Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden… It was natural to start writing songs together.

“We wanted to revisit these sounds, but with a modern approach using the latest production techniques.”

The result is a forthcoming debut EP, set for release in Summer 2020, and the album’s premiere single, “The Storm” — available now. While they all grew from the same soil, this track in particular can trace its roots back to the state of Tennessee.

“The makings of ‘The Storm’ specifically started after Jamie made a trip to Nashville for his first time in the summer of 2018,” Colmer says. “He came home loaded with inspiration and immediately started to write.”

“I picked up my acoustic guitar, dropped the tuning to an open D chord, and started to play,” Gutfreund adds.

“When he first played me the guitar part, it sounded like a storm to me,” Colmer continues. “The verse felt like it was building in intensity, like a wave. Then it reached a crescendo and came crashing down into a chorus.

“I wanted to capture that same feeling with the lyrics and melody.”

“There was something about Roddy’s darker, haunting melody that immediately drew me into the verse,” Gutfreund recaps. “But when I heard him open up during the chorus, I knew this song had strong potential.”

Produced by Dusty Chesterfield — noted veteran of the craft, and current bass player for multi-platinum prog-rockers Saga — the track pointedly lands reminiscent of “peak Stone Temple Pilots,” they say.

“We definitely wear our 90s grunge influences on our sleeves here.”

“The Storm” is available now.

My Next Read: Disgraceland: Musicians Getting Away with Murder and Behaving Very Badly

0

From the creator of the popular rock ‘n’ roll true crime podcast, DISGRACELAND comes an off-kilter, hysterical, at times macabre book of stories from the highly entertaining underbelly of music history.

You may know Jerry Lee Lewis married his thirteen-year-old cousin but did you know he shot his bass player in the chest with a shotgun or that a couple of his wives died under extremely mysterious circumstances? Or that Sam Cooke was shot dead in a seedy motel after barging into the manager’s office naked to attack her? Maybe not. Would it change your view of him if you knew that, or would your love for his music triumph?

Real rock stars do truly insane thing and invite truly insane things to happen to them; murder, drug trafficking, rape, cannibalism and the occult. We allow this behavior. We are complicit because a rock star behaving badly is what’s expected. It’s baked into the cake. Deep down, way down, past all of our self-righteous notions of justice and right and wrong, when it comes down to it, we want our rock stars to be bad. We know the music industry is full of demons, ones that drove Elvis Presley, Phil Spector, Sid Vicious and that consumed the Norwegian Black Metal scene. We want to believe in the myths because they’re so damn entertaining.

DISGRACELAND is a collection of the best of these stories about some of the music world’s most beloved stars and their crimes. It will mix all-new, untold stories with expanded stories from the first two seasons of the Disgraceland podcast. Using figures we already recognize, DISGRACELAND shines a light into the dark corners of their fame revealing the fine line that separates heroes and villains as well as the danger Americans seek out in their news cycles, tabloids, reality shows and soap operas. At the center of this collection of stories is the ever-fascinating music industry–a glittery stage populated by gangsters, drug dealers, pimps, groupies with violence, scandal and pure unadulterated rock ‘n’ roll entertainment.
