The Research Title

Writing your Educational Research? The first thing that you should think is, of course, your research TITLE. Here's the general guide: 1. It should be written in a declarative form. 2. It gives a bird's eye view of the whole research. 3. It serves as a framework of the research paper. 4. It is typically 5-15 substantive words excluding articles. 5.

LET REVIEW TIPS      I am not a LET topnotcher. But I pass the exam with an 80+ average, which I never expected. The truth is, I only asked for a 75.00 average.But the Almighty was too generous to give me a better rating. GenEd was my highest at 89.00. And how did I do that?

Ellipsis - omission of some parts of a story to let the readers guess what may have happened in                  the missing parts. This is based on Ernest Hemingway's Theory of Omission or Iceberg                Theory. Comic Book Death - another literary technique where important characters die only to re-                       appear to clear things. Reverse Chronology - the story starts with the ending and slowly unravels how everything                       started. In medias res - narration starts at the middle of the story and characters, setting and conflicts                are introduced through flashback techniques. Deu
