ABSTRACT

An abstract should be viewed as a mini-version of the

project design. The Abstract should provide a brief summary

of each of the main section of the study: Introduction,

Methodology, Data Presentation and Analysis and Conclusion.

Not more than one page. You need to summarize everything in

one page what your project is all about. The abstract will

give an overview of the project. The abstract must be

written well in order to arouse the interest of the reader

for him/her to continue reading your project. Please discuss
