 Introduction

This introduction portion let the reader know the background of your research first and primarily consist of the
following three sections.

 1st section of the introduction portion must state the background knowledge i.e. why this study was
undertaken.
 2nd portion of the introduction must state the nature of work being performed in your whole research. It
must include the investigated variables as well as the methods utilized.
 3rd portion of introduction, which is usually the last portion, must state the problem’s condition at the end
of the research.
There are a different point of views of the people regarding introduction writing. Lots of people consider writing first
two points in this section and consider the third one unnecessary. But, it is highly recommended for you to include the
third portion as well. It let the reader evaluate your paper more accurately.

The author’s findings must be stated in the past tense and everything else in the present tense in this section. When it
comes to its length, it is not fixed but is kept around 500 to 700 words.

A good introduction generally consists of three distinct parts:

1. You should first give a general presentation of the research problem.

2. You should then lay out exactly what you are trying to achieve with this particular research project.
3. You should then state your own position.

Ideally, you should try to give each section its own paragraph, but this will vary given the overall length of the paper.

1) General Presentation

Look at the benefits to be gained by the research or why the problem has not been solved yet. Perhaps nobody has thought
about it, or maybe previous research threw up some interesting leads that the previous researchers did not follow up.

Another researcher may have uncovered some interesting trends, but did not manage to reach the significance level, due
to experimental error or small sample sizes.

2) Purpose of the Paper

The research problem does not have to be a statement, but must at least imply what you are trying to find.
