Chapter 4: Discussion


19

Discussion

• Compare with other works –agreement, contradict, confirmation, better understanding, etc

• How the findings relate to the theory or current understanding


20

Conclusion.

• Summary of main findings (clearly numbered)• Brief recommendation for further study• This must not contain new ideas.• This must contain only statements which are supported

by your work and follow naturally and logically from it.

The conclusion is worth a lot of attention - and marks!


21

The Recommendations.

• This should contain many of the ideas which will have occurred to you as you worked, and which were written down in your log book … weren’t they?

• This must contain ideas for future work. Imagine yourself starting a similar project … what would you want to read? Be as specific as possible about:

– new applications of the present theories/techniques.

– application in areas with similar mathematical structures.

– extensions which avoid the limitations/weaknesses of your work. Be honest - this is a sign that you know what you are doing and will be rewarded rather that penalised!

The Recommendations are worth a lot of attention - and marks!


22

Tenses – General Guidelines

“Choose proper tenses”

• Introduction – present tense

• Literature – past tense

• Rest of report/thesis- past tense

• Findings – present tense


23

Summary• Abstract : The whole report in miniature• Introduction: Serve as a frame for the rest of the

report / thesis• Literature review: What are background, related

theories, previous study• Methodology: How did you study the problem?• Results: What did you observed?• Discussion: What do your observation means?• Conclusion : What conclusion can you draw?


24

Writing Tools

• Use tools such as spell checker and grammar checker regularly to ensure that typos, etc are eliminated

• Consider using a tool like EndNote to manage your references, or build your own reference database.

• Use tools in Word or the Open Source tools, diction and style, to measure the complexity of your writing and gain advice on improving your style.


25

Summary

• Take note of this briefing and the documentation as failure to do so in the past has resulted in students attaining very poor marks and even failing completely.

• Allocate your time accordingly. Note that students often throw marks away by poor presentation and/or inadequate abstracts, introductions, conclusions and, especially,

recommendations.
