Introduction to Research & Publication

Course Overview

A Practical One-Hour Video Course for Beginners

This interactive video session is designed for students and beginners who want a clear, practical understanding of how research and publication actually work — without the pressure of conducting a study or aiming for a publication.

It’s a brain-storming style session, not your usual theory-heavy lecture, that breaks down the process of research into simple, real-world concepts you can apply in your academic journey.

  • What Ethics Committee approval means and when it’s required.
  • How to identify, assess, and eliminate plagiarism.
  • Why publication takes time and the stages involved.
  • The peer review process — what happens behind the scenes.
  • Why journals charge publication fees and how to plan for them.
  • How to spot and avoid predatory journals.
  • Ways to increase visibility of your research once published.
