Further reading on the concept of data and restuls

In this step, we will briefly discuss the differences between data and results in academic writing. While these terms are often used interchangeably, understanding the distinction between them is essential for presenting research findings effectively.

Data refers to the raw, unorganized information collected during experiments or research processes. Results, on the other hand, represent the organized and analyzed data, often presented in the form of figures, tables, and images. It is important to note that researchers are responsible for organizing and analyzing the data to create meaningful results. As researchers, the interpretation and presentation of the data are integral to the writing process. In our next lesson, we will explore how to report findings in academic writing effectively.
