As a researcher, you are expected to start publishing early in your career. But original research could take years to complete! This does not mean you that you cannot publish a paper until you complete your research. You can disseminate your research in many other ways. These slides will help you learn more about the different types of scholarly literature so that you are able to choose the most suitable format for publishing your study.
Scientific Writing should be fun. It is not for only science students but also for all the person who are associated with education or literature or any type of writing. For students also it is useful for paper writing. Dr. Daxaben N. Mehta

Following the Topic Selection Guidelines below, choose an argumentat.docxalfred4lewis58146
Following the Topic Selection Guidelines below, choose an argumentative topic to research. This will be your topic throughout the entire course, so the activities required for this assignment will provide the foundation for your future Touchstones. The topic for an argumentative research paper must be a debatable topic, meaning that it involves conflicting viewpoints. Additionally, it cannot be a topic that is already decided or agreed upon by most of society. You will need to take a firm position on the topic and use evidence and logic to support the position. Touchstone 1.2 includes a research question, a working thesis, a detailed outline, and a reflection on this pre-writing process.
A. Topic Selection Guidelines
DIRECTIONS:
You may choose any topic you wish as long as the topic has two clear sides and is not agreed upon by most of society. Your topic should be current, appropriate for an academic context and should have a focus suitable for a 6-8 page essay.
B. Research Guidelines
DIRECTIONS:
Refer to the list below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.
1. Research Question and Working Thesis
Keep in mind:
The research question and working thesis are the driving force behind your research and eventual argument.
❒ Your research question should be a single sentence, framed as a question.
❒ Your working thesis should be a single focused sentence, framed as a statement that takes a clear position on the research question.
❒ Include your research question followed by your working thesis.
2. Detailed Outline
Keep in mind:
Your detailed outline provides a map of the argumentative research essay that you will write, including your key claims and the sources that support them. You may not have all your sources yet, and that is fine. The outline is a way to organize your essay and determine which areas (e.g. your sub-points) will require researched evidence as support.
❒ Headings: one for each paragraph with a brief label of the paragraph’s controlling idea(s); at least 7 body paragraphs, an introduction, and a conclusion
❒ Introduction includes your working thesis.
❒ Body paragraphs should each have their own unique title and key points.
❒ Conclusion includes notes on your final thoughts.
❒ Subheadings: two to five for each paragraph, below each heading, indicating key points that support the controlling idea
❒ Sources: one to three for each subheading, as relevant, indicating the support for the key point
❒ For each source, include the author’s name and the idea or information relevant to your argument (e.g. “Lappé on mono-cropping corn/soy and production”).
3. Reflection
❒ Have you displayed a clear understanding of the research activities?
❒ Have you answered all reflection questions thoughtfully and included insights, observations, and/or examples in all responses?
❒ Are your answers included on a separate page below the main assignment?

Abstract and bibliography by Robin P. Mathew
1. Writing a Research
Abstract
AIM : To understand the concept of
abstract writing as one of the skills of
scientific communication
•Any reader would first prefer to go
through the abstract and then decide on its
course of study whether to do or not
2. What is an abstract?
An abstract is a brief summary of a research article,
thesis, review, conference proceeding, or any in-depth
analysis of a particular subject or discipline
It is often used to help the reader quickly understand
the paper's purpose.
An abstract acts as the point-of-entry for any given
academic paper or patent application.
3. What does a good abstract do?
Sparks interest in your project
Provides a concise description of your research project
States in a clear and simple way the main points of your
project
Stands alone
Targets your specific audience!
4. Components of an Abstract
Title
Authors/affiliations
Objective/background
Methods
Results
Conclusions
In some cases keywords are written
5. Title
Describe your most important result/the major
thing you found or did
Keep it relatively short
Avoid all abbreviations and technical jargon
6. Authors
Your name should go first if you are presenting
Your mentor should generally be an author
(usually last author)
Additional people who have worked the project
may be authors – be sure to talk to your mentor!
7. Objective
Motivation – why do we care about the problem?
What practical, artistical or scientific gap is your
project filling?
Why were you drawn to this project?
You will generally need a little background/intro to
explain the objective
The objective should catch people’s attention – very
important!
HYPOTHESIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8. Methods
Procedure or approach to the project.
How did you go about finding your results?
What steps were taken to carry out the project?
Don’t go into too much detail!
9. Results
A description of your data and observations
– enough detail to make it clear
Still try to avoid jargon
As a result of your procedure, what was
found or created?
Typically does not include actual data (p-
values, survey statistics, gene sequences…)
NEVER predict your results!!!
10. Conclusions
What are the larger implications of your
work?
What is the bigger picture?
Work on incorporating these implications
into your very last sentence
“These results suggest that HMPV is unique
among the family members, with the fusion
protein driving attachment and low-pH
induced fusion, likely following endocytic
entry of the virus”
11. Things to Avoid
Avoid unnecessary phrases including “It is
suggested that…” or “It is known that…”
These can be omitted without changing the
message
If possible, do not use acronyms or abbreviations
Avoid rephrasing or restating the title
Avoid jargon that will not be understood by all
readers
12. Helpful Hints
Look at examples of abstracts in your field
If your abstract is based on a report or paper: 1.
reread your report or paper and summarize the main
points or idea
2. Don’t add any information that is not in your
report or paper
Get your mentor’s approval!!!!
13. KEYPOINTS
Introduction: 2-3 sentences
Brief description of materials and methods: 1-2 sentences
Summary of significant result: 1-3 sentence
Statement of significance of result/conclusion: 1-2
sentences
No reference/bibliography/table/figures etc.
No information from outside
No abbreviation (unless it is properly introduced)
Single paragraph
Simple sentences – short, concise, past perfect tense,
passive voice (since work is done)
14. AIM: TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE
WORKS DONE BY THE
RESEARCHERS THAT ARE CITED
IN A RESEARCH PAPER
Bibliography
Relating to books Denoting something
Synonymous to bookmark or tagging
15. Bibliograpghy
•An alphabetical list of all source material to which
reference has been made while preparing a report or
a text
•Works listed in bibliography may not be cited in the
text
•Some different ways of referencing a book, journal
articles and other documents are as under:
17. Name-Year Documentation
•Citations in the name-year
format are referred to in the
body of the paper using the in-
text style.
•The in-text style for citations
includes the author’s name and
the year of publication within
parentheses and the citations
are listed alphabetically by
the author’s surname in
the end references page.
18. Citation-Sequence system
•In the citation-sequence
system, superscripted
numbers are inserted at the
point of reference,
sequentially numbered in the
order in which they first
appear, like this1.
• It is possible to cite more
than one reference within one
sentence by using a
superscript sequence of
numbers2,3. The citations are
then listed numerically in the
end references page.
19. Citation-name sequence system
•In the citation-name
system, superscripted
numbers are inserted at the
point of reference as in the
citation sequence system.
•However, the citations are
numbered alphabetically
(not by order of
appearance) by the author's
last name in the cited works
for the paper.
21. Name-year system
Also known as Harvard system/Author-date system
Citation of source – surname of author/last name followed by
year
Example, (XYZ,2014)
Authors name listed in Reference section in alphabetical order
Most widely used as it is simple to use
Most journals in Life Science and Agriculture follow this system
Greatest advantage – convenient to both the author and reader
Time saving (since no need to crosscheck)
Disadvantage – requirement of more space in the main body of
text
22. Citation-Sequence system
Also known as Vancover style
Reference cited in this system is numbered according to
order of appearance in text
No. is set as superscript 1 or parentheses (1)
If reference cited indicates more than one source – No.
arranged in series (1,4,7)
If in sequence (1-3)/if not (1,3)
When Citations finalized – reference sources listed at the
end in order of position
BOOK – Author, Year
ARTICLE – Author, Journal name, Year
Reader friendly
Editor's Notes
You must explain why your work is important in the first few sentences. You want this to stand out.
You must explain why your work is important in the first few sentences. You want this to stand out.
You must explain why your work is important in the first few sentences. You want this to stand out.
Keep them very simple. Methods do not have to be overly complex. The overall idea of how you went about your project. One or two sentences, if possible.
Don’t write what you HOPE will occur, because it may not turn out this way.
