Abstract：
Writing papers is one of the main academic goals. Writing a good paper requires good research and good presentation. The general recipe has several key ingredients: research the topic thoroughly, develop a clear thesis statement, organize the ideas with an outline, write a strong introduction and conclusion, support the arguments with evidence from reliable sources, cite sources correctly, and carefully proofread for grammar and clarity; ensuring the writing is concise, focused, and flows logically throughout the paper. There are many dos and don’ts that make a paper from good to better to best. In this seminar, we will discuss some of these.
