    RESEARCH PAPER

    Title/Cover Page
    Contains the paper's title, the author's name, address, phone number, e-mail, and the day's date.

    Abstract
    Not every education paper requires an abstract. However, for longer, more complex papers
    abstracts are particularly useful. Often only 100 to 300 words, the abstract generally provides a
    broad overview and is never more than a page. It describes the essence, the main theme of the
    paper. It includes the research question posed, its significance, the methodology, and the main
    results or findings. Footnotes or cited works are never listed in an abstract. Remember to take great
    care in composing the abstract. It's the first part of the paper the instructor reads. It must impress
    with a strong content, good style, and general aesthetic appeal. Never write it hastily or carelessly.

    Introduction and Statement of the Problem


    A good introduction states the main research problem and thesis argument. What precisely are you
    studying and why is it important? How original is it? Will it fill a gap in other studies? Never provide a
    lengthy justification for your topic before it has been explicitly stated.

    Limitations of Study
    Indicate as soon as possible what you intend to do, and what you are not going to attempt. You may
    limit the scope of your paper by any number of factors, for example, time, personnel, gender, age,
    geographic location, nationality, and so on.

    Methodology
    Discuss your research methodology. Did you employ qualitative or quantitative research methods?
    Did you administer a questionnaire or interview people? Any field research conducted? How did you
    collect data? Did you utilize other libraries or archives? And so on.

    Literature Review
    The research process uncovers what other writers have written about your topic. Your education
    paper should include a discussion or review of what is known about the subject and how that
    knowledge was acquired. Once you provide the general and specific context of the existing
    knowledge, then you yourself can build on others' research. The guide Writing a Literature
    Review will be helpful here.

    Main Body of Paper/Argument


    This is generally the longest part of the paper. It's where the author supports the thesis and builds
    the argument. It contains most of the citations and analysis. This section should focus on a rational
    development of the thesis with clear reasoning and solid argumentation at all points. A clear focus,
    avoiding meaningless digressions, provides the essential unity that characterizes a strong education
    paper.
    Conclusion
    After spending a great deal of time and energy introducing and arguing the points in the main body
    of the paper, the conclusion brings everything together and underscores what it all means. A
    stimulating and informative conclusion leaves the reader informed and well-satisfied. A conclusion
    that makes sense, when read independently from the rest of the paper, will win praise.
