How to answer a question
[edit | edit source]Do:
- Cite existing research and literature, many 'research' questions have been asked
many times before.
- Suggest repeatable experimental tactics to support claims.
- Be prepared to have your contributions critiqued mercilessly.
- Quote the full experiment. ( Context is important)
DO NOT.
- Promote 'fringe' theories. Strong claims need even stronger evidence.
- Plagarise. Academic fraud is a serious matter.
- Rely on others to spot the 'missing' term.
- Self-Publish your own results here.
- Expect your paper to be written for you !
