Learn How To Develop Information Systems Research Proposals using APA Methodology

25 £ /h

Writing a research proposal is one of the most important tasks facing academics, researchers and postgraduate students. Yet there is a good deal of misinformation and a great lack of guidance about what constitutes a good research proposal and what can be done to maximise one's chances of writing a successful research proposal.

This course recognises the importance of developing an effective research proposal for gaining either a place on a research degree programme or funding to support research projects and set out to explore the main factors that that proposal writers need to attend to in developing successful proposals of their own.

Developing Research Proposals will help readers to understand the context within which their proposal will be read, what the reviewers are looking for and will be influenced by, while also supporting the development of relevant skills through advice and practical activities.

This course will assist postgraduate students dong Honours, Masters and PhD degrees to be able to write good research proposals for their studies.

Learn how to become a successful IT Project Manager

19 £ /h

IT project management is the planning, scheduling, execution, monitoring and reporting of IT projects. IT project managers are responsible for planning, budgeting, executing, leading, troubleshooting, and maintaining these projects. I hold a PhD degree in Information Systems and a postgraduate diploma in education. I have many years of experience as an IT project manager in the industry.

I have designed the course as a practical guide to implementing IT project management in the industry that is specifically tailored towards the activities of an IT project manager. You will learn to develop IT project charter, IT business plan, IT project plan, IT project quality plan, IT project risk management plan and Stakeholders engagement.

Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning.

This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied.

As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others.

I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly.

Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.

Are you a university student, engineer, or professional who needs to actually use data — not just learn theory about it?
This course is built around real problems and real code. We skip the textbook formulas and go straight to applying statistics and data science the way professionals do: with Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, matplotlib) and R (RStudio).
What we cover, adapted to your level and goals:
- Descriptive and inferential statistics (the ones that actually matter)
- Data cleaning, exploration, and visualization
- Regression, classification, and intro to machine learning
- Time series and forecasting basics
- R for statistical analysis and academic research

Who this is for:
- University students in statistics, economics, engineering, or biology
- Professionals wanting to move into data analysis or data science
- Researchers who need to process and present data properly

I use Python and R professionally as a working engineer — everything I teach comes from real application, not just academic exercises.

While adults are still debating whether kids should use AI, they are already using it.
The question isn't "should they?" it's "how do we do it intelligently?"

In this course, your child will discover:
✓ What AI actually is: not magic, not mystery. How machines think, what they can do, what they can't
✓ How ChatGPT really works: not just "ask a question and get an answer," but why it responds that way, where it fails, when to trust it
✓ What LLMs are (Large Language Models): in language they understand, not tech jargon
✓ Create with AI: custom avatars, interactive stories, real projects using real tools
✓ Think critically about AI: Bias, privacy, creativity. What does AI do better than humans? What can't it do?
✓ Real-world applications: How AI transforms medicine, education, art, gaming, everyday life

Why this is different:
Most AI courses for kids teach "here's the tool, use it." I teach how to think about AI.
Your child will learn to see AI not as black magic or a solution to everything, but as a powerful tool with real limits.
And, more importantly: that they can control how they use it.

What they take home:
Real projects they created (custom avatar, interactive app, analysis of a real AI case study). A genuine understanding of how it works. And the ability to use AI responsibly and creatively.

Format: Online | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible, adapted to their age and pace

For curious kids asking "How does ChatGPT actually know things?"

Topics include:
Propositional and Predicate Logic
Syntax and semantics
Natural deduction
Semantic tableaux
Correctness and soundness
Completeness

Formal languages and automata
A formal language is an abstraction of general characteristics of programming languages. Such a languages consists of a set of symbols together with some rules to determine whether a string made up out of those symbols is a member of the language.

Topics include:
Regular languages, context-free languages
Finite automata, pushdown automata, Turing machines
Regular expressions
Regular grammar, context-sensitive grammar
Pumping lemmas for regular and context-free languages

Objective: To understand AI without fear, to use it to simplify one's life, to know how to identify digital traps, and to use Word, Excel, etc. without difficulty.

1: Demystifying AI (What exactly is it?)
AI is not a movie robot: Difference between fiction and reality.

How it works (simply): The image of the "giant library": AI has read billions of books and uses them to predict the continuation of a sentence or create an image.

Where is it already present? Spell checkers, Netflix/YouTube suggestions, GPS, and voice assistants (Siri/Alexa).

2: Using AI to make life easier
Conversing with AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini):

Ask him to write an administrative email or a complex letter.

Summarize a long newspaper article or document.

Plan a travel itinerary or find recipe ideas with what's left in the fridge.

AI for creativity and memory:

Generate images to illustrate a birthday card (Midjourney, DALL-E).

Using AI to restore or colorize old family photos.

3: Learning to "talk" to AI (The Art of the Prompt)
The context method: Why "Give me a cake recipe" is less effective than "I am allergic to gluten and I am hosting 4 people, give me a simple chocolate cake recipe".

The expert's role: Learning to tell AI "Act like a travel guide" or "Act like an expert gardener".

4: Precautions and Critical Thinking (The Survival Guide)
"Hallucinations": Understand that AI can make false claims with complete certainty (never take medical or legal advice from AI without verification).

Privacy protection:

Never give sensitive data (social security number, passwords, bank details) to an AI.

Knowing that everything we write to the AI is potentially used to train it.

Spotting "Deepfakes":

How to recognize a doctored image or video (details on the hands, strange reflections, slightly metallic voice).

Verify the information: the golden rule of cross-referencing sources.

5: Ethics and Impacts (To go further)
Copyright: Who owns an image created by AI?

The environmental impact: The water and energy consumption of AI servers.

The future: Will AI replace us or assist us?
