Nowadays, many professional students have to write papers, but most of the time they are trying to get a credit, and schools and teachers are also very relaxed, as long as the whole article is not obviously plagiarized, plagiarized or outrageous. I think it's much easier to write a paper under the above circumstances. It's a bit difficult to start writing a thesis, but once you start, you will find the rules and research methods that suit you, and it will be much easier in the future. When you start writing a paper, you should first dabble in a large number of documents. After accumulating a certain amount of reading and thinking, you will form your interest and views on one or some issues, thus forming the material of your thesis.
After reading a lot of materials extensively, you can form a paper on the issues you are interested in. The process is roughly as follows:
First of all, determine the topic, a topic with suitable extension and connotation, which determines your research content and writing function words. Generally speaking, the topic of a paper of about 3000-5000 words should not be too big, but small and clear. The topic depends on what you usually pay attention to in your study. It should be research-oriented and practical. It should not be meaningless, not too uncommon, and there is no material to refer to.
Second, after the topic is determined, we must collect materials around the topic. We should extensively dabble in and collect relevant documents and materials, and on the basis of a lot of reading, we should get rid of the rough and the fine, discard the false and keep the true, accumulate a lot and form our own views and ideas. This process is more complicated. If the quality of your thesis is very high, you really need to spend a lot of time and energy to sum up and think. If the quality of the paper is not high, it is just a process of forming one's own views and then citing excerpts.
Third, in the writing stage, after collecting enough materials and forming your own opinions and ideas, you should start writing as soon as possible. The process of writing is also a process of thinking, and it is also a process of testing a person's meticulous thinking and strict logic. In the writing stage, it is mainly the process of expounding opinions around the topic of the paper, and it is forbidden to be arrogant or top-heavy, with uneven or unreasonable power distribution and unclear opinions. We should mainly focus on the viewpoint of the paper and elaborate and analyze it from all aspects rather than single line. Don't use verbs in choosing words, don't lengthen sentences, don't whitewash things, and don't be empty.
While paying attention to the substance, we should also pay attention to the form of the paper. An excellent paper is almost as important in content and form. The format of the paper includes title, abstract and keywords. If it is a long paper, there should be a table of contents index, and some papers require an English abstract. Next, enter the text, including introduction (preface, overview), text (you can write several titles), conclusion and conclusion (with the writing process and thank-you speech of the paper, etc.). It is particularly important to note that in the text, the citation of other people's works, journals, papers or other people's opinions should be strictly in accordance with the citation norms, indicating the title (journal name, paper name, seminar name), author, publishing house, time, page number, etc. The source of the cited materials should be indicated in the form of footnotes and endnotes.
A good paper doesn't have to have different views, and it pursues the unprecedented and the later. If you can put forward a more advanced or fruitful point of view on one or several problems in your own research field, it is naturally better. However, today, there are many researchers in various fields of natural science and social science, and many problems are actually "prepared by predecessors". The learning space for newcomers is very narrow, and there is not much time and energy to study, so it is not easy to make achievements. However, as long as we can pay attention to a field, comprehensively study the research results of related scholars, experts and other predecessors in this field, understand the basic situation of relevant theories and practices at home and abroad, form our own thinking and views on this issue, form a self-explanatory theoretical system, and have an objective understanding and understanding of its existing problems, this is a good paper. If we can ask questions again and put forward our own solutions for social practice, this paper should be regarded as a high-level paper.
In short, in the current academic atmosphere, it is easy to write a paper to cope with credits and exams, and both ctrl+C and ctrl+V can be used. But to write a good paper, it really takes some thought. My master's thesis was written intermittently from 65438+February in the first year to April in the second year, and then submitted to the teacher for review, revised three drafts, submitted in May, and defended in June, and was finally rated as an excellent graduation thesis. I understand the hardship of writing a paper about myself, but I also know the glory when my paper is praised.
