Workbook Task 1: Theory of Science
1. Choosing any Article from any Scientific journal from subject area - Mechatronics Engineering (preferably graduate level). List the article with its complete bibliographic information according to the rules from the script.
2. Summarize
a) the problem/background/rationale of the article,
b) the research question(s)/objectives, and
c) the main results and conclusions of the article in our own words. That is, we should cite the text indirectly according to the citation rules from the script.
3. Determine the research methodology from the article and give three arguments why it is a qualitative or quantitative research methodology or a literature review. We can include statements about the sample, the methods used for data collection and analysis, or how representative the results are.
Maximum length: Two pages
 
Workbook Task 2: Bibliography and Citation
Look at the bibliography in the article selected in Task 1 and list three different types of sources (e.g., monograph, anthology, journal article, internet source, etc.). Assign the three selected sources to the different source types. Making sure that we use the citation rules from the script.
Choose two paragraphs from the article and write a paraphrased text for each of the two paragraphs. This means that we should quote the text indirectly according to the citation rules from the script and reproduce it in your own words.
Maximum length: one page
 
Workbook Task 3: Practical Application of Good Science I: Finding a Topic and Database Research
Think about a topic for a scientific paper in our field of study (from Mechatronics Engineering (preferably undergraduate level), for a seminar paper, project or thesis. Formulate a meaningful title for our scientific work.
Find suitable literature for our topic.
a) Find five keywords that fit our topic and do a keyword search preferably, using Boolean operators at least once. Write the keywords in a table.
b) List five scientific sources, that we can find using the keyword search, in a bibliography. Write the bibliography according to the citation rules in the script.
 
Workbook Task 4: Practical Application of Good Science II: Introduction and Research Questions
Write an introduction for our research paper from Task 3. Remember to include all elements of an introduction and to formulate at least two research questions.
Cite at least one source directly and two more indirectly in the introduction. Making sure that we use the citation rules from the script. We are free to use the sources we have already found for our topic using the keyword search.
Maximum length: one page

Workbook Task 5: Research Methods
Determine the appropriate research methodology for our scientific work from Task 3 and describe the appropriate methods of data collection and analysis. We should only describe the method of data collection and analysis. It is not necessary to design a questionnaire or any other instrument.
Justify why the chosen research methodology is appropriate to answer our research question(s).
Maximum length: one page
 
Workbook Task 6: Create Indexes
Create a table of contents for our scientific work from Task 3. Take into account the structure of scientific works and the chapters or indexes that are mandatory for the structure of a scientific work.
Create a bibliography for all sources cited in our workbook, i.e., all sources we used in Tasks 1-5, according to the citation rules in the script.
