Learn How To Develop Information Systems Research Proposals using APA Methodology

From 48 C$ /h

Writing a research proposal is one of the most important tasks facing academics, researchers and postgraduate students. Yet there is a good deal of misinformation and a great lack of guidance about what constitutes a good research proposal and what can be done to maximise one's chances of writing a successful research proposal.

This course recognises the importance of developing an effective research proposal for gaining either a place on a research degree programme or funding to support research projects and set out to explore the main factors that that proposal writers need to attend to in developing successful proposals of their own.

Developing Research Proposals will help readers to understand the context within which their proposal will be read, what the reviewers are looking for and will be influenced by, while also supporting the development of relevant skills through advice and practical activities.

This course will assist postgraduate students dong Honours, Masters and PhD degrees to be able to write good research proposals for their studies.

Learn Arduino, robotics and electronics one to one with a qualified electronics engineer who teaches this at university level. Complete beginners through to degree students, online worldwide or in person in Birmingham, with a free 30 minute introduction before you book anything.

I'm Ghous. I hold an MSc in Electronics and Electrical Engineering with Distinction from the University of Chester, where I teach as a Visiting Lecturer on a Master's module, and I work as a freelance engineer designing circuit boards and writing embedded firmware for clients. I have taken a four layer ESP32 board from schematic to manufactured hardware, built the electrical power system for a CubeSat, and published two international conference papers on running neural networks on microcontrollers. When you ask why your sensor reads nothing or how to justify a design choice in a report, the answer comes from doing this work rather than from a tutorial.

Adults and hobbyists

If you own an Arduino kit and have stalled, or you can copy a project but cannot change it, this is the gap I close. We build what you actually want, home automation, data logging sensors, motorised builds, a device that talks to your phone, and underneath it you pick up the real skills: reading a datasheet, using a multimeter, wiring safely and debugging when nothing happens. No technical background required.

University and college students

Embedded systems, microcontrollers, robotics, control systems, circuit analysis and digital electronics. Arduino, ESP32, nRF52, PIC with MPLAB and STM32, plus Proteus, Multisim, Webots and PCB design in KiCAD. I also supervise final year and Master's projects from scoping through to the write up. I mark Level 7 work myself, so I know where reports lose marks. I teach students on UK, IB and continental European programmes and have worked with engineering students in Germany, so an unfamiliar syllabus is not a problem. Send me your course material and I will work from it.

School students, ages 9 to 18

Beginners who want to build something real, and students with coursework in Design and Technology, Computer Science or Engineering, whether on GCSE, A Level, IB or a national curriculum. Typical builds are a line following robot, an obstacle avoiding car, a live weather station or a motion triggered alarm. For lessons in Birmingham I bring all the equipment. Parents are welcome to sit in on the first session (UK DBS checked).

How lessons run

Tell me your level and what you want to build, or send your assignment brief, and I plan the session around it before we meet. I demonstrate first, then you take over while I guide, because nobody learns electronics by watching. Online students share a screen and I debug code and wiring photos live. Every session ends with something working and a clear next step, and you can message me between lessons.

Lessons run over Google Meet or Zoom, 60 or 90 minutes. I teach across GMT and Central European time with evening and weekend slots. Online students can start with any board they already own, or I will point you at one starter kit under 30 euros that covers the first several months.

Message me with your level and what you are trying to build and we will arrange the free 30 minutes.

AI is everywhere, but knowing that does not make it easy to begin. Many people feel overwhelmed, uncertain, resistant, or worried that they are already behind.

These lessons are designed for complete beginners who want a calm and supportive way to enter the world of AI.

I will help you understand how to approach AI, what it can realistically do for you, and how to begin using it without feeling intimidated. We will work at your pace, using real examples from your work, daily life, interests, or personal goals.

The focus is not only on learning the technology. It is also about building confidence, reducing hesitation, and helping you feel comfortable experimenting independently.

Depending on your needs, we can explore:

how to start a conversation with an AI tool
how to turn unclear thoughts into useful requests
how to recognize where AI can genuinely help
how to improve disappointing or inaccurate answers
how to verify information and avoid common mistakes
how to use AI safely without sharing sensitive information
how to choose between different AI tools without becoming overwhelmed
how to develop your own comfortable and practical way of using AI

No technical knowledge or programming experience is required. The goal is for you to leave the lesson feeling more confident, curious, and capable of continuing on your own.

Hello,

After a 34-year career in systems engineering (including roles as AVP System Engineer & Product Owner at Moody's), I've learned one essential truth: technology is useless if it remains overly complex.

There is NO set curriculum or pre-defined syllabus: every session is 100% tailor-made. I adapt entirely to your request, your skill level, and your current objectives—whether that means gently discovering a new tool or solving a specific technical challenge.

My approach is built on clear, accessible guidance: no unnecessary jargon, no dull theory, and no prerequisites required. My goal is to make technology accessible, seamless, and immediately useful (if my experience helps you avoid a few costly surprises, then I’ve done my job).

Examples of what we can cover together:

Discover and Master AI (ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Gemini, Veo, etc.)

Learn how to write clear prompts to get accurate results (prompt engineering).

Use AI to draft content, summarize documents, analyze data, or organize your daily work.

Understand best practices to use these tools securely.

Simplify and Automate Your Daily Tasks

Connect your collaborative tools (emails, files, calendars, M365 services) to eliminate repetitive actions.

Migrate to new M365 services smoothly.

Set up simple virtual assistants to save you time.

Optimize Your Digital Tools & Cloud Environment

Take control of your IT workspace, organize collaborative environments, and secure your access.

How?
We start with YOUR topics: a practical problem to solve, a project to bring to life, or a tool you want to master. Everything is explained clearly and patiently so that you leave every session with practical, actionable solutions.

Whatever your starting point or project, the course adapts to you—never the other way around.
