    How to Write Chapter 5

    The whole research study is summarized the synopsis of the research

    objectives, hypothesis, research methodology, sampling designs, consideration in

    determining sample, the subjects, research instruments, measurement and data

    collection and processes, and statistical treatment

    This part of the study states in concise form the findings based on the analysis

    and interpretation of the data gathered out of the research instruments used and

    presented according to specific problem in Chapter 1. Generalization in the form of

    conclusions are presented and the solutions to the problems are offered in the form of

    recommendations.

    Summary

    A summary, synopsis, or recap is a shorter version of the original. Such a

    simplification highlights the major points from the much longer subject.

    The purpose is to help the audience get the gist in a short period of time.

    Guidelines in Writing the Summary of Findings

    1. A brief statement about the main purpose of the study be stated.

    2. The findings may be lumped up all together but clarify demands specific

    questions under the statement of problem must be written first to be followed by

    the findings that would answer it. The specific questions should follow the order

    they are given under the statement of the problem.

    3. 3. Every statment of fact should consist of words, numbers or statistical

    measures woven into a meaningful statement. No deductions on the

    interpretation be made.

    4. 4. The findings should be concisely stated.

    Conslusions

    The final part of the study are joined together harmoniously with the findings. The

    results should be arranged in a logical order based on the statement of the problem.

    The hypothesis which is the antecedent of a conditional proposition is either accepted or

    rejected.

    Guidelines in Writing the Conclusion

    1. Conclusions should not contain numerals.

    2. Conclusions should appropriately answer the specific questions raised at the

    beggining of the investigation.

    3. Conclusions should be drawn from the direct effects of the findings

    4. 4. Conclusions should be explicit and definite, leaving merely implied giving the

    researcher a bit of doubt. The use of qualifiers such as, probably, perhaps,

    maybe should be avoided.

    5. 5. Conclusions should not be repetitions of any statements anywhere in the

    research, thesis or dissertation. In any event, they may be recapitulations if

    necessary, however, they should be avoided differently and should convey the

    same information as the statement summarized.

    Some suggestions can provide helpful tips to the researchers in drawing

    conclusions

    1. Know the area / locale in which the research has been conducted.

    2. What is in the research literature?

    3. Focus on the meaning / essence of the results.

    4. If theory is involved, either existing or a new theory is reproduced, show the

    similarity between the results and the theory.

    5. 5. If possible, suggest future investigation that might lead to address unsolved

    problems and provide an extension of knowledge.

    Recommendations

    Recommendations are based on the conclusions of the study. Give

    a detailed description of the suggestion for future action based on the

    significance of the findings. It includes implications for future use of findings and

    recommendation for future research. Appeals to people or agencies concerned tohelp solve the problems should be stated categorically.

    Guidelines in Writing the Recommendation

    1. It should have the aim and effort to solve problems in the study

    2. It should ensure a continuous benefit being accorded to the universe mankind

    involved.

    3. It should recommend a further study or investigation in a wider perspective and

    application.

    the thesis / dissertation or that are referred to in the text are alphabetically

    arranged. The bibliography as a part of the research work is placed after the

    recommendations. It provides the reader and other researchers the scope of the

    research study.

    Dedication

    The dedication page takes a great deal of thought, as it ought to be dedicated to

    someone who has contributed to the academic growth of the student and has not

    Abstract

    A research paper abstract is basically a recap of the content of a college report.

    An abstract is usually one paragraph (depending on the size of the report) that

    says what the article is about in very clear terms. Many people write abstracts in

    order to help readers to decide whether or not they want to read the document

    How to write an abstract?

    Make sure you are clear on what type of abstract is expected for your

    paper.An informative abstract summarizes the entire paper, including the

    key themes and purpose of the paper, major facts bearing on the

    conclusion, and a summary of key findings. This is the most common type

    of abstract.

    A descriptive abstract, on the other hand, concentrates on identifying the

    purpose of the paper, and describing the major areas to be covered in the

    report. It would be appropriate, for instance, in a review paper reporting on

    a survey of literature in a particular field.

    Whatever type of abstract you are writing, remember that it is an important

    first impression. This is what the reader will see, and will help him or her

    decide whether to read the rest of the paper or article.

    What conclusions or discussions stem from the findings.

    Keep the abstract short, but be sure to include all major points that you

    want to get across. A general rule of thumb is that the abstract is no longer

    than a page, and no longer than 10% the length of the full

    report...whichever is shorter.

    Do not include tables, figures, or references in an abstract.

    Reread/rewrite. Edit your abstract for content, flow, and readability

    As appropriatWhy is this topic important -- what problem does itaddress.

    What hypothesis is being examined.

    What methods or approach are used to address the topic.

    What are the key findings (particularly appropriate to a scientific

    paper).

    e to your topic, include any or all of the following:

    Table of Contents

    Table of contents are definitely one of the first things you need to write properly.

    Here are some examples to help you create one.

    A table of contents - also referred to as simply 'contents' - is a list of what topics

    are included in a specific literary work

    List of Tables

    Assign each table in your thesis/dissertation an Arabic numeral. You may

    number tables consecutively throughout the entire work (Table 1, Table 2, etc.),

    or you may assign each table a two-part Arabic numeral, the first number

    designating the chapter in which it appears, followed by a period, followed by a

    second number to indicate its consecutive placement in the chapter (Table 3.2 is

    the second table in Chapter Three, etc.). Do not include in the text typesetting

    notations often used when submitting manuscripts to a publisher (i.e., insert table

    x here).

    List of Figures or Illustrations

  • 7/30/2019 chapter5word!!!

    8/8

    List page numbers of all figures.

    The list should include a short title for each figure but not the whole caption.

    The List of Figures (if figures are presented in the text) follows the List of Tables,

    beginning on a new page. The author is responsible for coordinating all titles and

    numbers on the List of Figures with those in the thesis.
