Introductions look like a funnel General knowledge Knowledge gap Current study: Equations Principles Constraints Hypothesis

General knowledge is broadest Start with what everyone already knows: Real-life examples Historical development Biographical details Paint a picture of the current state of the topic General knowledge Knowledge gap Current study: Equations Principles Constraints Hypothesis

Addressing the knowledge gap What is missing from the current understanding? What principles need to be investigated? What new procedures might solve old problems more efficiently? How could a scientific principle be applied to a practical project? General knowledge Knowledge gap Current study: Equations Principles Constraints Hypothesis

Current report is the most narrow Equations you use to evaluate data Fundamental scientific principles you use to draw conclusions Constraints or specifications that demonstrate the limits A hypothesis of how you expect your topic will improve the current situation General knowledge Knowledge gap Current study: Equations Principles Constraints Hypothesis

The introduction sets the tone Equations and scientific principles establish the professional vocabulary Procedures section describes how you tested the hypothesis Discussion/Conclusions describes the difference between what the theory expects and what you actually see General knowledge Knowledge gap Current study: Equations Principles Constraints Hypothesis

Tips for success Anything in present tense belongs in the Introduction Concepts, principles Specifications and constraints General conditions Equations and definitions Supplemental questions provide context – answers belong here Outside research can help, but cite all sources
