Introduction. This section should contain the background of the issue supported by relevant references (state of the art). Explain the urgency and research gap you want to fill. Clearly state the purpose of the research and state the novelty or significant contribution of your research.
Research Methods. Describe in detail the research design, location and time, population and sample (if applicable), and data collection techniques. Describe the data analysis methods used in enough detail so that other researchers can replicate your study.
Results and Discussion. Present the results of the research clearly and systematically. Use tables or figures for complex data and don't repeat the same data in text. The discussion must interpret the results, not just repeat them. Connect your findings to existing theories and the results of previous research. Highlight the significance and implications of your findings.
Conclusion. Conclusions and suggestions are written in the form of paragraphs rather than in the form of numbers or bullets. Conclusion is a brief and accurate statement of the results of the discussion, not the results of the rewritten research but the meaning obtained from the results of the research. The conclusion must answer the purpose of the research. Present a summary of key findings without repeating the discussion. Provide practical or theoretical implications of the research results as well as suggestions for further research.
