In science we are writing papers on Wind Energy. I don't know how I should start writing the introduction. What would be some good things to have in there? Thank you!

Answer 1

DON'T start any paper's first draft by writing the introduction! How can you introduce a paper that you haven't written yet.

Follow the writing process, whether you're writing for science, history, English, or whatever:

Prewriting: brainstorm, research, plan, outline, thesis statement

Writing: write first draft by starting with section II of your outline; write introduction after the body of the paper is written; write the conclusion last.

Polishing: revise, concentrating first on the body of the paper, then the intro, then the concl (revision = making sure ideas are logical and sequential and support your thesis); proofread (spelling, grammar, usage, etc.)

Do you have a thesis yet? Have you done your brainstorming (and maybe research) yet? Have you written an outline?

Let us know.
