III. Writing
By now, you have done a lot of focused reading and you finally have a clear view of
your position. It is now time to write. The best way to start writing is to compose an
outline. Outlining will allow you to organize your ideas in a logical and coherent
manner.

An outline is a “blueprint” for your paper. Refer to the following sample as your guide
for outlining.

The Laboratory in Science Education

I. Importance of the Laboratory


A. Effect on Education
1. On learning in general
2. On improving science education

II. Perceived impact by


A. Teachers
B. Students

The outline you can see here is a simple example only. It is known as the alphanumeric
outline since it makes use of the following order of markers signifying main topics from
subtopics:

Roman Numerals (main-topic)


Capitalized letters (sub-topics)
Arabic Minerals ( details)
Lower case letters (minor details)

Of course, if your topic is broad and you have more discussions to include, you can
expand the number of sub-topics as you see fit.
After outlining, you may begin your first draft based on the order of ideas in your
outline. It is also important to note that your paper should have the following parts:
introduction, body,and conclusion.

1. The Introduction
Usually, this part is 1-2 paragraphs long but can be adjusted depending on thE
academic paper and its specifications. Regardless of the length, the introduction
should accomplish the following:
 Gain the interest of the reader.
 Provide background information on the topic and define important
concepts.
 Briefly introduce the important points of the paper.
 Give the thesis statement.

2. The Body
While the paragraphs in the body can be written in a variety of ways
depending on your purpose, it is important to note that each paragraph should
have one point that supports your thesis statement. The body should have the
following:
 Topic Sentence
 Explanation of Topic Sentence
 Supporting Details
 Concluding Sentence

3. The Conclusion
Out of all the parts of the paper, this may be the shortest but it is also as
important. Effective conclusions should accompish the following:
 Summarize the findings
 Show the significance of the findings.
