Writing a graduation thesis requires detailed information. A paper of about 5000 words may collect tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of words. Data is the basis of graduation thesis writing. Without data, "a clever woman can't cook without rice", the research can't start, the viewpoint can't be established, and the paper can't be formed. Therefore, detailed possession of information is another extremely important work before graduation thesis writing.

Before writing your graduation thesis, you should have at least the following five materials:

First, first-hand information. First-hand materials include written materials and digital materials (including charts) directly related to the topic, such as statistics, typical cases, experience summary, etc. And perceptual materials obtained from personal practice. This is the basic basis of the thesis's arguments and propositions. Without these materials, the graduation thesis will only become empty talk and have no practical value. First-hand information should be collected as soon as possible, and attention should be paid to its authenticity, typicality, novelty and accuracy.

Second, the research results of others. This refers to the latest progress in academic research on this subject at home and abroad. Writing a graduation thesis is not done out of thin air, but on the basis of other people's research results. Therefore, people can take this as a starting point and get useful inspiration, reference and guidance for the problems solved by others. For problems that others have not solved or are not satisfied with, we can continue to study and explore on the basis of others' research. Don't just bury yourself in writing, regardless of other people's research, otherwise the rational understanding of graduation thesis will be far below the previous level.

Third, the materials of marginal disciplines. Today is the information age, and the human knowledge system presents a state of great differentiation and great integration.

The gap between traditional disciplines has been gradually broken, and dazzling branches and marginal disciplines have emerged. Mastering the materials of marginal subjects is of great benefit to the subject research and the upcoming subject research. It can broaden our research horizons and make our analysis methods more diversified. For example, learning related topics of economics requires knowledge of management, sociology 1JL, neo-Confucianism, demography and other disciplines. The practice of a large number of research work shows that it is difficult to write high-quality papers without knowing some marginal subject knowledge and mastering some marginal subject materials, and with narrow knowledge and ideas.

Fourth, the related expositions of celebrities and related policy documents. Celebrities' statements are extremely authoritative, which is of great benefit to accurately and forcefully expound the argument. As for the Party's relevant principles and policies, they not only reflect the practical experience of socialist modernization, but also reflect various problems faced in practical work. Therefore, when we study all practical problems, we must have and clarify this material, otherwise there will be statements inconsistent with the party's principles and policies, which will make the paper appear great defects.

Fifth, background materials. Collecting and studying background materials is helpful to broaden the thinking, make comprehensive research and improve the quality of papers. For example, to study Marx's theory of commodity economy, we should not only study his works, but also collect the social, political and economic background materials in which he lived at that time, so as to obtain in-depth research results.

Second, the method of data collection and classification.

There are many ways to collect data, and the following methods are commonly used:

First, make cards. Collecting data with cards is convenient for classification, storage and search, and can be divided and combined.

When combined separately. You can make your own cards or go to the stationery store to buy them. A question is usually written on a card.

In fact, too much content can also be written on several cards. Of course, in the process of collecting information, do you want to make cards?

According to everyone's habits, there is no need for hard and fast rules.

Second, take notes.

It is necessary for any graduation thesis writer to take notes. A good memory is better than a bad writing. When reading books, newspapers and magazines and conducting research, you should carry a pen and paper with you and write down the contents of the required materials or related feelings, experiences and theoretical viewpoints at any time. When taking notes, it is best to set aside one-third of the paper area for writing the understanding, evaluation and experience of relevant excerpts.

Third, cutting and pasting newspapers and periodicals.

Cut useful materials from newspapers and publications, or copy them with a copier and then cut and paste them. The advantage of this method is that the materials that should be cut and pasted are classified and pasted on notebooks, loose-leaf papers or cards, which can save the time of writing sand.

Whether you use cards to collect data, extract data or cut and paste data, you must indicate the source. If it is a work, then

To indicate the author, title, publishing unit and date of issue; If it is a newspaper, please indicate the author, title, edition and newspaper.

Name and release date; If it is a magazine, please indicate the author, article title, magazine name, volume (issue) number, page number, etc. In order to attach an appendix to the graduation thesis.

Don't just leave the collected data behind, but read it carefully, classify it carefully and conduct research. There are two main classification methods:

First, subject classification. According to a certain point of view, the data are grouped. This "view" can be synthesized.

Opinions can also be your own opinions.

For example, in order to study the preconditions for cultivating the construction labor market, the author draws up his own four viewpoints: first, market economy.

The establishment of the system has created an objective environment for the emergence of the construction labor market;

Second, the formation of the construction product market has an impact on the construction labor force.

The cultivation of power market puts forward realistic requirements;

Third, the deepening of urban and rural system reform has provided a reliable foundation for the formation of the labor market.

Guarantee;

Fourthly, the establishment of the construction labor market is the inherent requirement of the employment particularity of the construction industry.

According to these four viewpoints

Classifying the data can deepen the understanding of the data and further make the understanding orderly and systematic.

Second, project classification. That is, according to certain attributes, the collected data are classified separately. Let's introduce Liaoning University.

Classification of projects listed by Comrade Wang Lianshan:

-

1. speeches by classic writers and celebrities

2. Conceptual theory project

3. Scientific definitions, theorems, formulas and rules

4. General axioms, common sense, idioms, proverbs, secret sentences and famous sayings

5. The author's own opinion

-

1. Cases, including facts, people's activities, speeches, poems and data cited by the authors of other factual projects.

2. Various statistical data and charts

3. Fragment discussion of the data author.

-

1. What I write down at any time.

2. Random items observed

3. Findings

4. Sporadic written records

-

Third, how to organize the collected information? The process of data sorting is essentially the process of data screening, and there are several aspects of work that are indispensable here. The first is to analyze the applicability of the data. The basis of material selection can only be the central argument that the author wants to clarify. What information is available and what information is not available should be decided according to this central argument. Once the central thesis is determined, it is the commander-in-chief of everything, and the data must obey the commander-in-chief of the central thesis. We can't move some materials that can't fully explain the problem for far-fetched explanations, and we can't stuff all the materials into the article, which makes the article bloated and complicated, but the center is not prominent and expands the length. For example, in the article "Several Questions about the Relationship between Urban Renewal and Landscaping", the author collected a lot of information about the relationship between urban construction and landscaping, but did not collect the information about the relationship between urban construction and landscaping. These unsuitable materials are stuffed into the paper, which leads to the dilution of the paper core and reduces the quality of the paper.
