First, long series
1. Write down any material that may be useful.
In the process of writing my thesis, I have heard some classmates complain more than once, and I have some judgments in my mind, but I can't remember what material is based on, or a certain piece of material is very important, because I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find it when I needed it. So when you come across relevant and possibly useful information, just write it down. You don't have to record it all, but at least leave keywords and paths for yourself.
Sometimes writing a paper is a process from "listening to materials" to "asking for materials", and the collection, sorting and classification of materials is also a process of sorting out ideas.
2, record materials should indicate the source, page number.
I didn't pay attention to the source and page number when I first recorded the material. I feel that this kind of material may not be used in the future, and the book is at hand. It's not too late to find it later. It turned out that this was not the case. It only took a few seconds to make an instant note, and then it took several times as long to review. In addition, when writing academic history, one of the bases for arranging the front and back of the works is the first edition time, and the edition number is indicated when recording materials, so it is much more convenient to write academic history, especially when dealing with a bunch of works with similar ages.
Second, the first draft
Write down your thoughts as comprehensively as possible.
The first draft was submitted to the tutor. At first, I always felt that it was immature and trivial, and I couldn't write anything. After my brother's education, I wrote all the ideas in the long series to the teacher in the first draft. After all, a mentor is a mentor. After reading your first draft, you can judge what is feasible in a limited time and what has room for further exploration. My final draft is far from the first draft. Some trivial things in the first draft have been linked, and the immature parts have been awakened by the tutor. The part that can't be done well in a limited time is also arranged after the undergraduate thesis.
Third, the defense draft
1, when the ancient calendar first appeared, brackets indicated the year of AD.
2. Pay attention to the format.
The defense draft should be revised according to the school's norms. There are six points that may need attention: 1, footnotes are used in the defense draft to facilitate teachers' reading; 2. Use "section break on the next page". Delimiters can be used between abstracts, tables of contents, texts, references, acknowledgements and appendices to facilitate page numbering and subsequent endnotes. Section break word07 is the first in the second column of the "Separator" drop-down menu in "Page Reference"; 3. Re-mark the page number after the text begins. If section break has been used, after inserting the page number, click the page number to enter the editing state, select "Format Page Number" in the first column of design, enter "1" as the initial page number, and re-mark the page number. If references, acknowledgements, appendices, etc. Also be re-marked, select "Continue to the previous section". 4. Reference the first column to provide the function of automatically generating the directory; 5. When the table of contents is generated automatically, the documents need to be graded. If you use Format, it will be very troublesome to modify the original format. If the outline view is used for grading, there may be a point in front of it. I right-click the paragraph, select the Indentation and Spacing tab in the pop-up paragraph dialog box, and edit the outline level in the first column of general rules, so that it will not be modified. 6. Use the format brush with caution, and the format brush will also brush the label.
3. For the translation of keywords, please refer to the dissertation.
If it's some professional and obscure terms (such as "mutual proof of poetry and history" I met), you can go to the discussion library and use this keyword to search for dissertations.
4. The introduction and conclusion should be carefully written.
Because the purpose of handing in our papers is the same, that is, "put it off if you can", even if you don't put it off, others will put it off, so it may be too late to send it to the teacher. And the teacher may not be too familiar with your paper. Therefore, the introduction and conclusion are very important for the defense, which determines the teacher's first impression. The introduction should briefly introduce some common sense, and the conclusion should summarize the full text. It is best to summarize the original ideas of the article and the dialogue with the academic circles.
Four. final version
Footnotes to endnotes.
If the defense draft has already written thanks, then only the question of "endnotes and footnotes" remains. There may be four points to note: 1. If the numbers are Roman numerals, pay attention to converting them into Arabic numerals (no need to circle them); 2. Right-click Notes Options, and in the Footnotes and Endnotes dialog box that pops up, apply changes to this section in the third column, so that the format ends before the page break, and the endnote format does not affect the following references and acknowledgements; 3. There are horizontal lines above and below the endnotes, which need to be removed. Select "Normal View" in the view, then select "Show Notes" in the reference, select "Endnote Delimiter" in the pop-up box, a short line will appear below, then delete, and then select "Endnote Continuation Delimiter" to appear and delete; 4. Remember to update the directory after the change is completed.
