How To Use Questions
As A Tool While Writing Your Academic Thesis
A great deal of research has been
conducted to figure out how professional writers write. Results of that
research show that Academic Thesis Writing is a cognitive process; a sort of
problem solving. Academic Thesis Writing is a recursive process. Recursion is
the process a procedure goes through when one of the steps of the procedure
involves rerunning the procedure. A procedure that goes through recursion is
said to be recursive. Academic Thesis Writers don’t have a specific beginning
and ending to their process of writing. Also, they make significant use of
their long-term memory, knowledge, images, experiences, memories. By connecting
them, new links are established that result in new texts with original ideas.
Connection of these links doesn’t occur automatically, you need a ‘flexible
mind’, you need thinking strategies in order to train your mind. One of these
thinking strategies is asking questions. A technique used for centuries by
philosophers, like Socrates who is famous for using this strategy. How does it
work?
• Choose a subject, for example a particular aspect of your academic thesis
writing.
• Ask questions: who, what, where, when, why, which, how (for example: what is
is, why is this important, when is it relevant, how does it work, which aspects
are related?)
• Answer the questions.
• Continue asking questions, divide the questions into fact questions,
opinions, feelings and emotion.
• Answer these questions.
• Do you want to go one step further? Change your subject into an abstract character
and start a conversation with him/her. Chances are that you will have an
unexpected dialogue.
• Asking questions will deepen your subject. It will also help you to stay
curious, which is crucial for you as a PhD student in India.
