Execution of coursework (example). Requirements for the design of course work

All students know that scientific work should not only be written competently, but also properly designed. This is what I want to talk about in this article.

GOST

First of all I want to say that there are certain requirements for the design of course work, compiled on the basis of several GOSTs. So, what are the moments that need to be taken into account?

1. Structure. Despite the internal requirements for course work, each of them must have a standard structure and consist of a title page, table of contents, introduction, main part, conclusions (and recommendations), references, applications.
2. This work should be printed on A4 sheets .
3. Indentation - this includes the design of coursework (example: top and bottom - 2 cm, on the left - 2.5-3 cm, on the right - 1.5 cm).
4. The interval between the lines is necessarily one and a half, the indent of the red line is 1.3 cm, the font is Times New Roman, 14 sizes.
5. As for the title page, it is assigned the number 1, but it is not printed.
6. A new section begins with a new page.
7. The total amount of work - from 20 to 60 sheets (depending on the topic and requirements).

These rules are considered standard, they are not changed and strictly adhered to. All the rest can vary depending on the requirements of the teacher or the department.

Title page

Any scientific work (course or diploma) begins with the title page. How should he look? First of all, it should be said that with the staff of the department, it is necessary to stipulate the design of coursework (for example, on the title page, various nuances such as "Done" and "Checked" can be displayed in different ways). However, there are some general rules.

1. At the top of the page, aligning the text on the center, you need to write the full name of the institution, on the next line - the faculty, below specify the department.
2. At the very center of the page, again, aligning the text in the center, you need to specify the theme of the course work, a little lower - the subject by which it is done.
3. Further it is necessary to designate who wrote the work and who will accept it. Often, the item "Made" is written on the right - it indicates the name of the student, the course, the group. Below, there may be a point "Checked" where the name and academic degree of the teacher will be indicated (this item can also be placed on the left side of the page), below can be the point "Evaluation", where the teacher will give the points for the work, , The signature of the inspector is obligatory.
4. At the very end of the page, at its center, the city where the university is located, and the current year, is indicated.

Content

We go further, studying the design of course and diploma papers. The next mandatory item is the "Content", where all the main parts of the work are prescribed, on the contrary, page numbers are necessarily indicated. Begins with a sheet from the title, which is written in large letters in the center. Then the main information is placed. It is desirable that the text was placed on one page. Also this sheet is not numbered, although its ordinal number is 2.

Introduction

The next obligatory and very important section of each scientific work is "Introduction". Here, it is equally important to know what the design of coursework should be (the example of writing this part can often be seen in the department of the department's cabinet). Important will be the following items:

1. Urgency (here it is necessary to give an explanation of why this work should be written, how much the problem under investigation is relevant for today).
2. Goals and objectives (the goal to be achieved in the course of the research must also be indicated, and the tasks that will be several).
3. Object (area of research).
4. The subject (clarification, the specifics of the object is what research is actually directed at).
5. Theory and methodology (here it is necessary to briefly review the works of scientific figures who worked on this problem).
6. Methods (indicate the methods by which this research is possible, for example: analysis, synthesis, statistical method , etc.).
7. Novelty (it is indicated that the student plans to introduce a new one in the development of this topic).
8. Approbation (practical verification of the research results).

These are the nuances that must be specified in each course work, unless there are other internal requirements. As for the size, the introduction will take from three to five to six pages.

Main text

We go further, considering the design of coursework. The example suggests that now the main part of the work, which will consist of three chapters, should follow. The first should consider the theoretical basis of the study, there should also be a brief historical digression on this subject, here, too, regulatory and legal acts relating to the study. The second chapter is the disclosure of the essence of the problem. Here the student displays all his achievements in a theoretical context. The third chapter is needed in order to be able to provide the results of practical approbation of this problem. For each chapter, you need to draw small conclusions.

conclusions

We continue to study the design of the course work. The sample says that the next part is called "Conclusions" (possibly, "Conclusions and recommendations"). Here the student sums up his work, indicates whether the goal was achieved, what tasks were accomplished, whether the hypotheses were confirmed or disproved (if indicated in the introduction). The student can also give some recommendations on how to solve this problem.

Bibliography

A mandatory item is also a list of course work literature. Making it - not less important moment. It is worth mentioning that, for example, laws, monographs and articles are drawn up in different ways, here there are nuances, they need to be studied. Basically, you will need to specify the author's full name, the name of the source, the publisher, the city and the year of publication, the number of pages. At the very beginning of the list of literature are laws or regulations, then English sources, then Russian-language. The sources are placed in alphabetical order.

Apps

Internal requirements of the department or the topic in the course work can be provided for various kinds of applications. These are tables, maps, pictures, which can be used as illustrative material for covering a particular issue.
