More Details:
You’ve hopefully integrated many of the principles covered in the Fundamentals of Writing for Researchers module in writing several drafts of your manuscript. It’s now time to put the finishing touches on your work.
By reflecting on these summary principles and checking your work based on the
questions presented here, you’ll ensure your research is both easily accessible and
understandable, therefore persuading your reader that your problem, approach, and findings are valid.
Including more than one will confuse your readers. In the example below, each
sentence supports or elaborates upon the topic sentence, “Whales are the most intelligent creatures ever to inhabit the earth.”
Each subsequent sentence tells the reader why. The logic of the paragraph would have suffered had the writer included a sentence such as, “Whales continually need to search for food in order to survive” because searching for food has nothing to do with intelligence. Amoebas search for food.
