Objective/ Purpose:
The purpose of this lab was to help us in writing our scientific research paper as well as to help us to better format our research rough draft that we will present.
Sections Of The Paper:
Titles And Authors:
The title should be long and should help give the reader what was researched and or tested. In the author’s section everyone who helped be mentioned, however only your group should be listed as authors.
Abstract:
The abstract section should be no more than 250 words and it should give the reader a summary of the whole experiment it should also include certain information such as small snippets of important information, hypothesis, data, conclusion. At the end of the section, the reader should understand how the results were obtained and what they mean.
Introduction:
Should include at least 3 primary references (APA format). The introduction needs a specific title that should catch a readers attention. The purpose of the introduction is to go into further detail in the experiment as a whole as well as relevant background information.
Materials And Methods:
This should be a concise and explicit version of everything you did in the experiment. It should be written to the point where anyone could recreate the steps you did exactly. Should be written in past tense.
Results:
This should include all your figures as long as a small description for the reader to understand what the data shows. There should not be any explanation in this section.
Discussion:
This is where you describe the results of all your figures. You tie everything together and you explain if the data supported your hypothesis and if it did why. Also talk if any errors may have occured. Also talk about outlieres.
Future Goals:
I hope to be able to write my rough draft and over time become more precise in writing them as well as continuing research.
