Research: Stage 6 - Presentation of Findings
What is This?
Now you can begin producing your final product - writing the paper,
assembling the presentation, or making the poster.
What Should I Expect?
Ideally, you will feel a sense of satisfaction now that you really
have a good grasp of your information. If your topic wasn't
interesting or wasn't what you expected, you might be somewhat
disappointed, but either way you can enjoy a sense of relief when you
finish!
What Should I Do?
Before you begin producing your product, you need to organize your
information. Here are some tips to help:
-
As you assemble the
information for your final product, you should always keep two
questions in your mind: 1) How does each piece of information relate
to my focus (thesis statement or theme)? and 2) What are the major
categories of information that relate to my focus? These
questions, along with the requirements of the assignment, will
determine the structure of your final product.
-
It helps most people to
make some kind of outline or visual structure. (Use Word,
PowerPoint, Inspiration or some other software so that you can easily
re-arrange things to find the best fit.) Also, don't forget to
ask your teacher and librarian for help, and keep sharing your
thoughts and ideas with your friends and writing them in your journal
or blog.
