Basic Introduction about the choice of my dissertation topic

One subject I had in the first semester that had to make me think to choose a particular topic for me to research on in-depth, and think about the techniques that I might be using to input in my own study was called 'Critical Studies and Research Methods'.

At the first week the topic was introduced, the lecturer has warned us (the class) to think well and pick a subject or topic to start thinking and research about it. This announcement of course was a bit cold at the start, since after the summer holidays my mind was still trying to settle in the school schedule. So, after three or four weeks that have passed I decided to base my research on 'Stone Reliefs and Features'. I thought on picking this topic, because I thought the historical stone reliefs of the Maltese buildings would be quite interesting to read and research about, I thought that I would manage to find enough information about it and that as a final representation for next year I would manage to interpret or rather get influenced to create an interesting feature wall design that would be linked in terms with the 21st Century style.

At a later stage I have told my lecturer about my dissertation topic, as she suggested me to talk with another lecturer which next year would possibly be the lecturer that will guide me to get to my intended result for my final design project. Then, I did as the lecturer has suggested and managed to discuss about the current topic with this other lecturer.

As I have told to the other lecturer about the subject that I was thinking about to keep researching on, the lecturer has suggested to rethink about a subject that I adore more while looking up the information and to create a more valid hypothesis that would lead me better especially when I get to analyse from my data collection.

At last I have done the exercise of thinking and pointing out all of my hobbies and topics that interest me the most and managed to gather the subject where I could research, collect data from target participants and make use of other research methods. The topic I decided to stick up to until now for my dissertation is 'Redesigning self-efficient Existent Accommodation'.

Looking forward for more upcoming studies that I would be needing to collect and build up more explorations and analyse more on the last entries that I have already found.
