1 Type a title for your project
Type a title for your project. The title should explain, as specifically as possible, what your research project is about. For example, if you give your project a specific title like “The Physiological Effect of Poor Nutrition on Teens With Learning Differences,” your reader will know what to be prepared to read about.
2 Type
Type the question that you asked yourself before you began your research project and why you were interested in asking it. Writing your question first will grab your readers and make them want to learn more about your project.
3 Paraphrase the previous experiments
Paraphrase the previous experiments that people have undertaken to answer questions similar to yours. Paraphrase the written research that you have encountered on your topic.
4 Link
Link the thoughts of others who have written about the topic with your own research and experimentation. Here is where you express your unique take on the area of inquiry.
5 Print out your introduction
Print out your introduction and have a friend or colleague read it for grammar and clarity.
- The typical length of a science project introduction is one to four paragraphs.
