    Checklist for Formats and Conventions of Theses and Dissertations McKay School of Education Brigham Young University Directions. The process for getting your thesis or dissertation approved typically takes more time than you expect, so plan accordingly. The flowchart found at education.byu.edu/ research/dissertation_aids.html helps you to understand this process. You are responsible for checking your thesis/dissertation to be sure that formats and conventions follow your program/department requirements, BYU Graduate Studies guidelines, and the seventh edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA). This checklist highlights some of the most critical formatting elements and common errors; refer to the following pages and the APA manual for more information. Complete this checklist, in conjunction with revisions from your committee and graduate coordinator. When the graduate coordinator has approved your Word version, they will submit it and your completed checklist to [email protected] in the dean’s office.

  • List of Common Errors Serves As a Guide for Making Corrections Before You Submit Your Thesis Or Dissertation
    School of Graduate Studies Thesis and Dissertation (ETD) Error Checklist Common Errors Requiring Correction This list of common errors serves as a guide for making corrections before you submit your thesis or dissertation. From time to time, another common error appears, and we update the list. For detailed information on the correct grammatical detail or stylistic nuance, consult the manual of style that you have chosen to guide your work. According to our Handbook, the style choice must be the style guidelines of the major journal in your field. If you need help beyond that manual, try Google. While you must not reference Wikipedia, it is an excellent starting place for general information and the first look at almost everything. If it is complicated, try YouTube. Finally, Word has this amazing feature called “Help.” Exploit its powers. Use as Checklist (The Morgan Dissertation and Thesis Handbook includes detailed discussions of most of these): □ 1. Font type in paging cannot be different from font in text (it may be smaller). This is a popular error. The default for Word is always showing up in the headers, while you have carefully selected a font for your manuscript. □ 2. Incorrect page numbering: Abstract not counted; Title page is “i” but is not placed on the page; Chapter 1 begins with page 1. This takes a few steps in Word to sort, but hundreds of people have done it. The position of the number must be an inch from the margin. If in the corner, an inch from both margins is expected. □ 3. Margins incorrect.

All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Societal Responses to the State of Orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) in Kano Metropolis- Nigeria by MUSTAPHA HASHIM KURFI has been approved for the Center for International Studies by Steve Howard Professor of African Studies Steve Howard Director, African Studies Daniel Weiner Executive Director, Center for International Studies 3 ABSTRACT KURFI, MUSTAPHA HASHIM, M.A., June 2010, African Studies Societal Responses to the State of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Kano Metropolis- Nigeria (131 pp.) Director of Thesis: Steve Howard This study uses qualitative methodology to examine the contributions of Non- Governmental Organizations in response to the conditions of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Kano metropolis. The study investigates what these organizations do, what methods, techniques, and strategies they employ to identify the causes of OVC’s conditions for intervention. The study acknowledges colonization, globalization, poverty, illiteracy, and individualism as contributing factors to OVC’s conditions. However, essentially, the study identifies gross misunderstanding between paternal and maternal relatives of children to be the main factor responsible for the OVC’s conditions. This social disorganization puts the children in difficult conditions including exposure to health, educational, moral, emotional, psychological, and social problems. The thesis concludes that through “collective efficacy” the studied organizations are a perfect means for solving-problem.

These objectives may be summarized as follotus: studies of spatial and temporal occurrence of extended middle and upper tropospheric cloud layers; development of a physical-numerical model to simulate the life cycles of middle and upper tropospheric cloud layers; and the design of an observational program to study" the physical, radiative and dynamical properties of these cloud l.__vers. Our initial intent was to study the spatial and temporal extents of middle and upper tropospheric cloud layers using both rawinsonde data and satellite visible and infrared imagery.

  • Typographya Quick Lesson In
    TYPOGRAPHYA QUICK LESSON IN Definition:The design and use of typefaces as a means of visual communication from calligraphy to the ever-developing use of digital type is the broad use of the term typography. However, the art and practice of typography began with the invention of moveable type and the printing press.Typography is sometimes seen as encompassing many separate fields from the type designer who creates letterforms to the graphic designer who selects typefaces and arranges them on the page. LETTERFORMS AND FONTS AT-A-GLANCE WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO CHOOSE OR MIX AND MATCH FONTS? There are no absolutely right or wrong ways to choose fonts or mix different fonts. However, there are a few accepted standards that can speed up the font selection process and generally result in typographically attractive and readable compositions.These guidelines won't always work for you, but nine times out of ten they'll give you the results you want with the least amount of trial and error. • When in doubt, pair a serif font for body text and a sans serif font for headlines. • Avoid mixing two very similar typefaces, such as two scripts or two sans serifs.There is not enough contrast and the small differences will cause a visual clash. • Limit the number of different typefaces used in a single document to no more than three or four. • Avoid monospaced typefaces for body copy. They draw too much attention to the individual letters distracting the reader from the message. A well designed page contains no more than two different typefaces or four different type variations such as type size and bold or italic style.

FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS HIV/AIDS Programme Working Paper 5 Vulnerability and Property Rights of Widows and Orphans in the Era of the HIV and AIDS Pandemic: A Case Study of Muleba and Makete Districts, Tanzania Research Report by Flora Kessy, Josaphat Kweka, Robert Makaramba and Irenei Kiria FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Rome 2008 ii HIV/AIDS Programme Working Paper 5 The HIV/AIDS Programme FAO, with the UN mandate for improving nutrition and food security, agriculture and rural development, has a unique opportunity to contribute to preventing and tackling the impacts of HIV and AIDS, and specifically the labour constraints caused by HIV and AIDS. FAO has the opportunity to identify and promote ways to raise awareness and prevent the transmission of HIV amongst rural communities, and to draw on capacities of the natural resource environment (agriculture, fisheries and forestry) to provide AIDS care and to help mitigate impact. Since 1988, FAO has been researching the impact of HIV/AIDS on agriculture, food security, nutrition and farming systems. In recent years, FAO's role in combating AIDS has become even more critical due to the fact that the epidemic creates a significant institutional capacity gap in the affected countries, especially concerning agricultural staff and service organizations, national agricultural research organizations and institutions in higher education and training, as well as in local informal institutions.

Asiasanat: liikennemerkit, opastusmerkit, luettavuus Aiheluokka: 22 TIIVISTELMÄ Opastusmerkkien luettavuusselvitys sisältää kaksi pääosaa. Ensimmäinen pääosa sisältää yleisen taustaselvityksen, jossa on etsitty monista lähteistä yleistä tietoa luettavuudesta ja ihmisen havainnointikyvystä. Toisessa pää- osassa on vertailtu opastusmerkkien muotoilu- ja mitoitusperiaatteita sekä väritystä viidessä vertailumaassa (Suomi, Ruotsi, Norja, Tanska ja Saksa). Taustaselvityksessä käsitellään yleisellä tasolla näköaistia ja havaitsemista. Opastusmerkkien luettavuuden kannalta tekstityypin ja värien valinta on tär- keä asia. Tutkimustulokset eivät kuitenkaan ole yksiselitteisiä. Esimerkiksi käytettäessä suuraakkosia lukija joutuu tunnistamaan yksittäisiä kirjaimia
