Professional research paper editing will help you create a professional, coherent, well-supported paper on any topic.
A research paper is often described as an extended essay. It is a way to simplify and summarize information from other sources and projects in the industry. It should communicate the writer’s own response to the original problem. It should also strengthen the response with evidence from other research teams. An essay is a focused summation of your arguments, but a research paper’s scope is often much wider.
How do you write a research paper?
A research paper has the same components as an essay. Before you write anything, you should complete your research on the subject. Your thesis and your paper structure may change depending on your findings.
Often, the main textual points of a research paper will include the following:
- Introduction: The introduction is the hook needed to pull readers in. It should be interesting and perhaps even provocative to catch readers’ interest.
- Thesis Statement: The thesis statement is the most important part of the paper. It is the argument that structures everything that comes before it and after it. It should answer a specific question.
- Body Paragraphs: This is where you blend your research with your results. Use the research to build up your argument or to acknowledge that your argument has holes in it.
- Conclusion: The conclusion serves as a quick wrap-up of the paper. It should also hint at further study. The conclusion should be simple and easy to read.
- Bibliography: A bibliography is an acknowledgment of the sources you used to complete the paper. Professors require specific bibliography formats. Confer with your professors to find their preferred styles.
As you edit a research paper, remember that it’s not simply a summary of others’ opinions. It is a demonstration of how those opinions strengthen your own argument.
