 Points to develop for a Science Project Report

1. Cover Page: must include in the following order the logo of the school, the school name, the title of the work, type oproject, the name of the subject, the name of the student with your ID number, the name of the teacher and the due date.

2. Summary: you must write it after developing all the work; the summary is the last thing is drawn up. Write a paragraphthat has as main idea for each section that is presented and the issues dealt with in the same. It should not be very large.

3. Table of contents: It’s a list of the aspects developed in the document. 

4. Introduction (including justification): the introduction is where are mentioned, without deepening, the main features othe document. To write the justification, which is one of the parts that must be present in the introduction; you shouldanswer the following question to writing the justification:

a. Why is this investigated? (it’s the reason why it is important to know the information that is included in the document)

5. Background and approach to the topic:

a. Background: prior information needed to understand the issue being treated, for example, if you are talking aboutpressure of gases, to be able to understand the information on this topic it is necessary to understand to understandpreviously what an area, volume and forces are.

b. Problem Statement: The Problem Statement means to question ourselves about the aspects of the topic that will bepresented. It is the phrase that tells us what is going to be known or discover with the research and subsequent drafting ofthe report.

6. General objective: the general objective is expressed in plain and simple words and sets which will be the ultimate goathat is intended to achieve with the research. We can guide us through the answer to these questions:

a. What is the knowledge that I intend to achieve and subsequently transmit with the research?

b. Is there consistency with the topic of the research?

7. Specific Objectives (Maximum 4): the specific objectives are the individual elements needed to achieve the overalobjective, we can guide us through the answer to these questions:

a. Are they towards to learn more about the general objective?

b. Do they help to assist with the investigation of the problem?

8. Theoretical and thematic framework:

a. Theoretical framework: there are two different aspects: in one hand, locates the subject under investigation within theset of theories, and also, the theoretical framework is a detailed description of each of the elements of the theory to bedirectly used in the development of research. The theoretical framework gives guidance on how to carry out the study (bychecking the background, we can be seen how a specific problem has been treated before).

b. Thematic Framework: All the phenomena that occur in the universe are so many and so great that science should studythem separately and set limits for each of them, since otherwise it would not be possible to research all at the same time.For this reason, each area of science has their own concepts, developing a code and establishing lines of communicationbetween people who have relationship with any branch of science. According to the information of your research, you mustplace in the thematic framework areas of science tracks that the information that you are going to develop belongs to.

9. Methodology: here you write down how did you get the information, how did you carried out the research and how didyou put together the report.

10. Discussion, interpretation and implementation of the results: here you present the results of your research and give the

analysis of those results and its possibles applications.

11. Conclusions and recommendations: here your write the conclusions you came after doing this research according toyour objectives and the you present in your recommendation all the results you got that were not considered in yourobjectives.

12. Annexes: Here you can place information that you consider important to review but that is not included within theabove document because it is very extensive and not part direct information of the work. DO NOT PLACE ITEMS THAT HAVEABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DOCUMENT. The annexes should be an additional tool to help your readerunderstand what you wrote in your document.
