When preparing to present results of your research, you
need to first determine any requirements that are prescribed for the presentation. Ask
your instructor about format, length, expectations regarding any and all aspects of
presenting the outcome of your work. These guidelines need to be the starting point for
the structure of you paper.
Most research papers will start
with an introductory section to present the question being researched, validation of the
reasons why this topic needed to be studied, and possibly a preview of the methodology
used in the research. Again, refer to the requirements set out for your particular
course.
Present your review of related literature with
commentary as appropriate. Discuss your research methods, the results you obtained, any
difficulties you encountered and how you handled them, and document everything as
directed by your instructor.
Finally, present your
conclusions. What do your research results mean? How can the new knowledge you developed
be applied to situations in the real world? What else remains to be researched - what
new questions have been raised by your work?
Good luck with
your writing!
