Introduction· The introduction also has three main purposes. First, it provides
background and motivation for your topic (usually includes a review of current literature
on the topic). Second, it describes the focus and purpose of the paper you are writing. Third,
it gives an overview of what is contained in the paper’s various
sections.Methods/Procedure· This section describes what you did, how you did it, gives
strategies, sample calculations, diagrams and circuits, and descriptions of equipment. The
goal here is to give the reader sufficient information to be able to repeat your work if
desired. (Of course some “standard techniques” can be simply referenced).Results· This
section is where you prove your point with the data. Give graphs and tables of costs, profits,
whatever your data is. Also give some description or guide to help the reader recognize
your important points.Conclusions/Discussion· Here you state what you learned or
proved. What are the “take home messages” or major accomplishments of this work? You
may also describe interesting observations, new questions, and future work here.
