This document discusses the presentation of results and data in research papers. It explains that the results section presents findings from the study in tables, figures and narrative text. The discussion section interprets the results and explains how they help answer the research question. Data should be presented clearly and concisely using tables, figures, graphs or other visuals as appropriate. The purpose is to report the key findings and discuss their implications.
Literacy is influenced by one's background and culture and involves more than just reading and writing. It refers to competence and fluency in various practices and ways of being. Literacy is also sociocultural, as it differs between ethnic, age, socioeconomic, and other groups. Because people participate in multiple discourse communities, they develop many literacies or ways of communicating. Discourse refers to the language systems used by cultural communities and involves both language use and qualities. It shapes one's social identities and ways of interacting with others. Literacy and discourse thus reveal one's values, backgrounds, and identities.
This document summarizes research on using CyberKnife and TomoTherapy for treating liver cancer. It discusses studies from Korea, Taiwan, China, Belgium, and the US on using these technologies for inoperable primary or recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma and liver metastases. Key findings included high response rates and local control. Current research interests discussed standardizing treatment protocols and criteria across countries through guidelines. Future directions may involve regional collaboration on studies to further optimize these radiotherapy approaches for liver cancer.
This document discusses plagiarism among ESL/EFL students. It notes that plagiarism has become widespread due to the ease of finding and copying information online as well as cultural differences in concepts of authorship. ESL/EFL students in particular struggle with plagiarism unintentionally due to difficulties with writing in English and differences in educational systems. The document recommends several strategies for teachers, such as explicitly teaching what plagiarism is, having students practice note-taking and paraphrasing, and recognizing individual student challenges.
The document provides guidance on writing the discussion and conclusion section of a research report. It outlines key elements to include such as the main results of the survey, secondary results, contrasting results, and interesting findings. As an example, it summarizes the main results of a survey which found that the majority of students do not think teachers need to wear suits. It also outlines how to restate the information in the results and make recommendations if appropriate.
This document provides an overview and guidance for defining a research project. It discusses asking questions about why research is being done, how to maintain interest, choosing a research method, and personal skills that could help. It also covers defining the research topic, purpose, participants, location and timeline. Generational cohorts are introduced, including key characteristics and values of Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials and Generation Z. The importance of considering these cohorts for research is highlighted.

Methodology, results, discussion general commentsAiden Yeh
This document provides commentary and suggestions for improving various sections of a research paper, including the methodology, results, discussion, and overall flow. Key points addressed include properly placing the research questions, avoiding simply restating results in the discussion, using statistics like ANOVA and chi-square to test relationships between variables, including tables and figures, avoiding over-generalization, and ensuring the discussion section synthesizes interpretations and explains the meaning and implications of the results.

How To Write Your Research DissertationChris Jobling
This presentation describes the standard structure of your research dissertation and suggests a methodology for its successful production using modern word processing tools.
1. The results section should objectively report the findings from the research in a concise manner using figures, tables and text.
2. Key results should be highlighted and described in the context of the questions asked. Control experiments and non-table/figure findings can also be reported.
3. Data should be analyzed and presented in a clear format without interpretation, and the same data should not be presented twice.
The document defines plagiarism as presenting others' words, ideas, images or creative works as one's own without proper citation or credit. It cites a study that found over 70% of students admitted to some form of cheating or plagiarism. The types of plagiarism are discussed as intentional copying or buying of works, and unintentional through careless paraphrasing or excessive quoting without using one's own voice. Consequences can include failing grades, suspension or loss of reputation and future opportunities. Proper citation and use of sources is encouraged to avoid plagiarism.
The document outlines the typical structure and components of chapters in a research study. Chapter 1 introduces the problem, theoretical framework, research questions, scope, and definitions. Chapter 2 reviews related literature and studies. Chapter 3 describes the research methods, including design, subjects, instruments, validation, and statistical analysis. A sample study is provided on sources of stress for university management teams.

2) There are different types of plagiarism, including failure to cite sources, failure to use quotation marks, and patchwriting (using sections of copied text without citations).
3) Plagiarism can be unintentional through poor citation or failure to use quotation marks, or intentional through directly copying or buying papers.
