*Chapter 4: Results
This is an important chapter but it can be rather dry. Sometimes graphs, charts, or tables can liven it up – but take care not to over use them or use them when they are not required. Never use graphs, charts, or tables with explaining their relevance or commenting on them.
Purpose: your Results chapter presents what you found out from your own data sources.
Important point: You should present your data by theme not by method. It is often a good idea to structure this chapter using your Research Questions/hypothoses. If you have quantitative and qualitative data as a general rule you report that quantitative data first and then then report the qualitative data.
i.e. Theme 1: Quantitative data /Qualitative data
Theme 2: Quantitative data/Qualitative data etc.
Or Theme 1: The interviews suggested/the observations showed
Theme 2: The interviews suggested/the observations showed
Conclude with a brief summary of your main findings (one paragraph)
YOU CAN MAKE THE RESULTS UP BUT MAKE SURE THEY ARE REALISTIC/IMPORTANT. TRY TO BACK IT WITH EVIDENCE AND BE CRITICAL. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF MY DISSERTATION SO PLEASE MAKE SURE IT IS EXCELLENT. I HAVE INCLUDED MY METHODOLOGY YOU HAVE WRITTEN TO HELP YOU AND YOU ARE STILL CURRENTLY WRITING MY LIT REVIEW SO USE THAT TO HELP YOU ASWELL. USE GOOGLE TO HELP YOU FIND EXAMPLES AND INFORMATION TO HELP WRITE GOOD RESULTS/ANALYSIS.
USE UP TO DATE RESOURCES/REFERENCES AND PLEASE MAKE SENSE!
