9 Requirements for Quality Research and Academic Papers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781539329756)

Intellectualism and scholarship will cease to flourish without research and academic writing in form of books, thesis, journal articles, conference papers, etc. In the same vein, the unborn generation will not benefit from the intellectual achievements of the present generation without academic writing. Half of the research work to be undertaken by a researcher is considered done by the time a researcher becomes familiar with the essential requirements for quality research.This book guides potential researchers through nine essential requirements for writing quality research proposals and academic papers with less stress and frustration. It begins with an introduction which covers the meaning, types and importance of research. This is followed by features of academic writing and its relationship with originality and creativity, and then a typology of academic papers/journal articles. In the remaining chapters, the book explains 9 steps required for writing quality research proposals/reports and producing quality academic papers for journals and conferences. This is strengthened with some useful advice and precautions, where needed, and down-to-earth examples related to education, social and management sciences, and in certain cases, the natural sciences.
