✍️ Step 3 — Manuscript Sections
📋 Enter each section of your manuscript below. Each tab opens a separate writing window. Do NOT include your name or school in the text (blind review). Not sure what to write? Each section includes a blue guidance box to help you. All sections marked * are required.
📌 Introduction: Begin with broad context about your topic, then narrow to the specific problem you studied. Explain why this matters and what gap in knowledge your research addresses. End with a clear statement of your research aim or hypothesis. Aim for 300–600 words.
0 words
📚 Literature Review: Summarise and critically analyse existing research relevant to your topic. Show how previous studies inform your work. This section demonstrates you have read and understood the scholarly conversation in your field. Cite your sources throughout. Aim for 400–800 words.
0 words
🔬 Methodology: Describe exactly how you conducted your research so that another person could replicate it. Include your research design, participants or materials, instruments used, data collection procedure, and analysis method. Be precise and use past tense. Aim for 400–800 words.
0 words
📊 Results & Findings: Present your data clearly and objectively. Report what you found — do not interpret or discuss it here (that goes in Discussion). Use tables and figures where helpful (you'll add illustrations in Step 4). Report statistical results with appropriate values (p-values, confidence intervals, etc.). Aim for 400–800 words.
0 words
💬 Discussion: Interpret your results. What do they mean? Do they support your hypothesis? How do they compare with previous research? This is where you show your critical thinking. Explain unexpected findings. Discuss practical implications. Aim for 400–700 words.
0 words
🎯 Conclusion: Summarise what you studied, what you found, and why it matters. Do not introduce new information here. This should be a concise, standalone summary of your entire study. Aim for 150–300 words.
0 words
⚠️ Limitations: Every study has limitations. Being honest about them actually strengthens your paper — it shows scientific maturity. Discuss constraints in your sample size, method, data quality, time, or scope. Aim for 100–250 words.
0 words
🔭 Future Work: Suggest how future researchers could build on your work. What follow-up studies would be valuable? What would you do differently with more time or resources? Aim for 100–250 words.
0 words
📎 Appendix: Include any supplementary materials directly relevant to your research — raw data tables, survey instruments, extended calculations, additional figures, or supporting materials too detailed for the main body.
