How to read a scientific paper in biology
Ever wonder how a scientist actually reads a paper? For sure they do not read it front to back. First they read the abstract, then turn to the figures. If the figures are not interesting, they stop. Have a critical plan and see how the paper matches your expectations. If it does not answer questions clearly, it will not be cited. Read critically! Jump around! Only a very few papers are worth reading fully.
Research paper guide for students
The document provides guidance for students writing research papers. It explains that research papers require extensive individual research to develop a written document on a chosen topic. Students must choose a topic, conduct research through various sources, create an outline organizing their paper in sections like introduction and conclusion, take notes and collect information for each section of their outline, write a draft incorporating their research, and revise the draft based on feedback to produce the final research paper. The document stresses starting with an engaging topic, developing a tentative outline, thoroughly researching the topic, and adjusting the draft as needed to complete a well-organized research paper meeting assignment requirements.

- Writing and publishing a research article is important both practically, to advance one's career through promotions and funding, and ideally, to share findings and improve healthcare.
- Getting published is competitive, with high rejection rates at top journals. Major reasons for rejection include lack of novelty, poor experimental design, or being poorly written.
- A good research paper has novel, mechanistic findings published in a high impact journal. It is important to choose the right journal and write clearly and concisely following the journal's instructions. The introduction should build the case for why the study is important and the results should clearly answer the proposed hypothesis.
Reporting and utilizing research findings
There are two major ways for researchers to communicate the results of their studies .
They can talk about them or write about them
Lite Review Guide
The document provides guidance on conducting a literature review, including:
1) The purpose is to analyze, summarize, and critically evaluate prior research and literature in a field to identify what is known, evaluate strengths and limitations, and recognize gaps in knowledge.

WRITING AN ACTION RESEARCH DISSERTATION: PART
TWO
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the second part of our two-part media presentation. In the first part, we talked about key tools for
successful academic writing and gave an example of how these tools can make your dissertation writing
process faster and help you create a stronger dissertation document. This second part of our two-part media
presentation applies those key tools to the specific challenges of writing an action research dissertation.
PROCESS OF WRITING
The process of writing the research dissertation involves finding ways to help your readers understand both the
philosophy of research underlying the study and the methods employed in the study.
ACTION RESEARCH ROLES
It will be important to help your readers to understand the roles of the Principal Investigator and the participants
in your Action Research study. Rather than the "all-knowing" researcher who controls conditions and conducts
an experiment on or to someone or something else, Action Research assumes that the participants themselves
have insight and an important perspective and role.
ACTION RESEARCH METHODS
As a writer, you will want to help your reader understand that this idea of democratizing the research process
applies regardless of the research methodology used. Action Research involves methods that would be
familiar in both qualitative and quantitative types of research, and it would be very common to find mixed
methods in a particular study. Regardless of the methodology used, the participants can and will play an active
role at each step of the research process.
Help your readers to understand that the participants are active in the research process of planning, deciding,
and helping to shape the implementation of the study protocol and analysis of the findings. Also, help your
readers to understand that findings are interpreted or understood in part based on "meaningfulness" to the
participants engaged in the work.
An example might be a study on abusive behavior in hospitals among nursing and other staff. Members of the
study team could help refine the survey instruments, later take the survey themselves as part of the participant
pool, and help to interpret the findings.
IMPLICATIONS FOR WRITING...
In the next few minutes, we will discuss four elements of writing the action research dissertation. You will want
your dissertation to clearly explain the following:
1. How the research questions that you asked led you to decide to use action research.
2. How the research questions that you asked informed they way in which you organized and presented
your discussion of prior research.
3. How you balanced the two goals of being of service and avoiding risk to participants within the action
research paradigm.
4. The reporting of outcomes and analysis of outcomes.
ACTION RESEARCH DISSERTATIONS
Action Research dissertations are, by their nature, research studies in which the roles of the Princi.
Writing a Literature Review.ppt
The document provides guidance on writing a literature review.

A research proposal outlines the key aspects of a research project, including the research question, literature review, methodology, and significance. It should follow a standard format, typically including an abstract, introduction, literature review, methodology, limitations, and references. The introduction defines the research problem and question, while the literature review analyzes previous work. The methodology explains how the research will be conducted and analyzed. The proposal convinces readers that the research is important and merits funding or approval. Common mistakes include lacking focus, organization, or methodological details.

1st Draft Due: Friday, November 19
Final Draft Due: Wednesday, December 8
Length Requirement: 5-7 pages
Audience: Consider your subject matter, then decide who would be the best or most likely
audience for such a topic. Imagine that your audience includes experts in the topic you are
discussing. Your tone and voice should be appropriate for someone addressing experts in the
field. For instance, if you chose to discuss how the concerns of farmers weigh into the decisions
of politicians, you might consider your audience to be farmers as a whole and others in the
agricultural industry. On the other hand, you might want to consider politicians or the electorate
as your audience. Determining your audience depends on who you think needs to hear your
report. It is possible that once you get into the revision process, your perception of the
appropriate audience may change. And ideally, your overall thesis should evolve as you gather
evidence and revise your essay.
Your Assignment: The goal of this assignment is to choose a topic of personal interest, then
utilize the library database and other credible sources to provide a comprehensive, objective
analysis of the research material. You will start your research very broad, and then become more
specific as you locate sources. Determine your thesis statement based on the exercises and
research done prior to this assignment. Your thesis should present an original viewpoint on your
subject matter. This is not an argumentative or persuasive essay. You will utilize and interpret
sources to support your analysis of the topic. Choose sources that provide supporting facts,
definitions, or anecdotes. You should not use sources to make your point for you. Present your
viewpoint without personal bias or emotional language, but instead with logical reasoning. Your
essay must utilize at least 3 academic/scholarly sources. Other sources may be included, but
they will not count toward the 3 sources required by the assignment, and they must be credible.
You must utilize at least 3 quotations in your essay. Block quotes are highly discouraged.
Format: MLA or APA format, Times New Roman, 12-point font, one-inch margins, double
spaced. Number your pages and include a header at the top left corner of the page with your
name, my name, the class name, and the date. Provide a Works Cited page for any and all
sources referenced (not included in page count). Keep in mind that there are proper ways of
citing your own primary research in both MLA and APA formats. And as always, please give
your paper an appropriate title. Be creative!

CLASSIFYING RESEARCH
Objective: Following completion of this course, the student will understand the general classification schema for research.
There are several ways to categorize different kinds of research. Please view the schematic that you’ll find in the section on quantitative research. One of the most fundamental is basic versus applied. By far, the preponderance of educational research is applied. We generally think of basic research as it more frequently occurs in the sciences. Examining the theoretical foundations of the beginning of the universe, trying to validate Darwin’s Theory of Evolution,

and other such projects are certainly worthy endeavors, leading to simple expansion of knowledge rather than of some immediately applied benefit. However, in education, we’re more interested and involved in solving problems. Just how much does a certain math software package do in terms of facilitating mastery of multiplication and division? Is mainstreaming effective in countering self-image problems of special education students? Will mandatory retention of third-graders who cannot read affect eventual graduation rates? These are examples of applied research, answers to which allow us to immediately make improvements in some aspect of education.
Research can be classified as either quantitative or qualitative. You will use both in the research project to be completed in this class. The former, quantitative, requires the use of statistics for analysis of data. Look at the schematic on the preceding page and locate descriptive under the quantitative heading. You will design and carry out a descriptive pilot studythis semester; it will require some basic statistical analysis skills which you master in a subsequent assignment. Look at the arrow on the schematic on page 50. That is what you’ll be doing, a combination quantitative and qualitative study..
Qualitative research does not require the use of statistics. It is sometimes termed ethnographic research, coming from long-time use by anthropologists and relies upon such as observation of behaviors in a natural setting, interpretation of documents or records, interviews, and open-ended questions used in surveys. Details on techniques of qualitative analysis and writing will be addressed later in this text.
