I have been spending most of my waking time away from my small children and family to hide out in the local library in an attempt to completely focus myself on my analysis and thesis writing. I will admit that it is working much better than being at home with all of the distractions and food, as I am easily distracted.
I have completed my analysis but I am still at a bit of a loss as to how I am going to turn what I have found into a logical flow of information. Jordanne has been so helpful with her suggestions of how she has approached these kinds of challenges in the past and offered some suggestions of how I can go about it, but once I'm done the meeting with her, it seems like everything that made sense that night is gone by the light of the new day and I'm overwhelmed and lost again.
So, I decided to just do what my colleagues and professors have been saying all along and that is to just start writing and see what ends up on the page. As much as I was hoping to synthesis all of my findings into a logical flowing format, the content just is not lending itself to that type of writing. I feel that I'm being compelled to focus on each section of information as a topic unto itself but perhaps I can tie them all together by saying something at the start about how they each apply to simulation-based training but are not specifically simulation-based training focused. It is something along the lines of a broken thumb being a sore thing, but a sore thing is not necessarily a sore thumb. These sections are all linked to simulation-based training in one way or another, but not necessary to each other.
I will keep moving forward with my writing and see what else develops.
