  2. The introduction section contains phenomena based on references, problems, literature reviews, statements of novelty/state-of-the-art, and research objectives that explain the background of the research.
  3. The literature review contains relevant theories that form the theoretical framework to be used in analyzing and basis of the research/creation.
  4. The researcher needs to critically evaluate and synthesize the work of others and present the relationship between theory and existing phenomena to put forward the state-of-the-art of the paper being written.

Research Method

  2. The research methods should contain enough detail to enable the reader to evaluate the appropriateness of the methods and the reliability or validity of your findings.

Result and Discussion

  2. The discussion can be written by comparing the results of this study with the results of other researcher’s work, what is unique about the results of this study in showing the originality of the results.
