  5. Research Question • A research question is a formal statement of the goal of a study. Courtesy of Fabin and Axel

  6. Research Question • Although the aim of the essay can best be defined in the form of a question. • it may also be presented as a statement or proposition for discussion. • It must be appropriate to the subject in which the essay is submitted. • Even if the research question is built into the title itself in the form of a question, it must also be clearly stated in Introduction of the essay and in the abstract.

  7. Research Question

  8. Some Good and Bad Examples

  9. Abstract • The abstract is judged on the clarity with which it presents an overview of the research and the essay, not on the quality of the research question itself, nor on the quality of the argument or the conclusions.

  10. Parts of an Abstract • Motivation:Why do we care about the problem and the results? If the problem isn't obviously "interesting" it might be better to put motivation first; but if your work is incremental progress on a problem that is widely recognized as important, then it is probably better to put the problem statement first. • Problem statement:What problem are you trying to solve? What is the scope of your work (a generalized approach, or for a specific situation)? Be careful not to use too much jargon.

  11. Parts of an Abstract • Approach: • How did you go about solving or making progress on the problem? • Did you use simulation, analytic models, prototype construction, or analysis of field data for an actual product? • What was the extent of your work? • What important variables did you control, ignore, or measure?

  12. Parts of an abstract • Results:What's the answer? Put the result there, in numbers. • Conclusions:What are the implications of your answer? Are your results general, potentially generalizable, or specific to a particular case?

  13. Method (Investigation) • Where the study involves experimentation or practical fieldwork- - - A detailed description of the procedures used, possibly with diagrams or photographs, should be given, such that an independent worker could effectively repeat the study. -- Careful attention should be given to the design of experiments to include use of, for example, quantification, controls, replication and random sampling, where appropriate. ---The selection of techniques should be explained and justified, and any assumptions upon which they depend should be clearly stated.

  14. Investigation • If the study is based on the research of secondary data, students need to ensure that the selection of sources is sufficiently wide and reliable.
