Abstract and conference paper proofreading will help you write a professional paper.
Before you can present at an academic conference, you will need to submit an abstract. This abstract is a concise summary of your longer conference paper and presentation. A committee of conference organizers will review your paper abstract for content and style. An abstract is the audition for the conference.
How to write a good abstract
Often, an abstract in a paper will include three main parts:
- Introduction: The first paragraph introduces the question you will answer. Explain how your research relates to the general literature of the field.
- Body: The second paragraph will outline the method and results of the research. You should not design your abstract to tease an answer or leave the readers guessing. Instead, it should present a thorough summary of the research and conclusions.
- Conclusion: The last paragraph offers insight into your research topic. Explain why the audience of the conference needs to know about your work.
Committee members receive many submissions and read them one after another. When writing an abstract, a writer should keep it catchy and short (less than five hundred words).
[ee_cta]What is a conference paper?
A conference paper is the basis for a presentation you will give on your research. Because it is a cross between a research paper and a speech, there are special rules to follow. Many conferences need a written submission before the presentation.
How to Write a Good Conference Paper
A conference paper needs to both look professional and sound professional. Conference presentations are usually around fifteen to twenty minutes long. Your paper should be eight to ten pages, double-spaced. Write your paper while reading it out loud to understand its rhythm.
- Introduction: The introduction of a written paper should be eye catching. Introductions don’t need to be informal but should provide a strong hook. Why should the audience listen to you?
- Thesis: Readers can usually tell what the thesis of a paper is by its place in the text. When giving an oral presentation, you need to use verbal cues to make this clear.
- Body: This will include your research, results, and methods.
- Conclusion: Explain why your research augments the work done by others. How does it fit the theme of the conference?
- Extra Elements: You can use PowerPoint or Prezi to emphasize your points. Further, make sure all spellings and punctuation are correct. Often, there will be a question-and-answer section at the end of the presentation. Consider what questions your peers may ask of you.
