ii) Formatted draft
Downloaded the raw template from KREATE.com and inserted the complete information required for the journal article.
iii) Final submission
Minor refinements were made to the paragraphs to suit the article after paraphrasing was done. Further improvements were made such as supporting a few statements with more citations to ensure their reliability and tweaking the wording in some sections. Minor details as such should be taken aware of as they can affect the context conveyed in the journal article.

Week 14

Week 13
General feedback
- The appendices should include only the relevant data used in the article

REFLECTION
The last assignment was not too time-consuming as the previous ones as it only requires summarising the research paper and focusing on one research objective/problem for the journal article. Overall, the module has further improved my ability to convey ideas through academic writing as well as thinking more critically when analysing information from different sources.
