Name the goal of the research. For example, fill some gap in the data,
resolve a problem, disprove some statement, or else. Mention the
importance of your work in this context.
Give a brief overview of the most important results.
Don’t overload your text with terms and numbers in the Introduction.
III. RESEARCH METHODS
In this part you shouldn’t explain the essence of the standard statistical
analysis methods, your audience has to know them by default. Instead,
describe your experiments, their aims and how you compiled the data.
Mark if the task itself remained constant all the time, or you had to adapt
the goals to the new conditions.
List the resources and applications you used. However, if you only worked
with printed media, it is enough to list them in the bibliography.
IV. DISCUSSION OF RESULT
It is the largest and the “driest” part of the report.
Present facts only, don’t draw any analysis or discussions;
Start from the general concepts and move to particular details;
Don’t mention any irrelevant results, unless you discovered something new and
unexpected;
Use terms and strict definitions, in this part you shouldn’t use colloquial style;
Pay attention to the page layout – use smaller paragraphs.
Illustrate each result with a table, graph or a diagram.
V. CONCLUSION
Here you give a summary of your results and explain their meaning in the context
of your field of study. Also, you should mention if you approved or disproved your
initial hypothesis.
Note that you should use plain language in Conclusion. This part, together with
the Introduction and the Abstract, should be written in the general style without
hard terminology.
If you find out in the process of the researches that subject has to be explored
more, note this too. Outline which methods you would use for that and which
results you expect to get.
