How to present the findings of research.
Providing an account of research involves telling a story during which four key questions are answered: why did you start, what did you do, what did you find out and what does it mean? It is the third of these--what did you find out--that is at the heart of any research paper. Ensuring that the key messages emerge from the data is the duty of the author and requires considerable skill and craft.
