Title of the Manuscript (Times New Roman 12)

Author’s Full Name (TNR12)

Affiliation (TNR12)
Abstract (TNR12)
Write your abstract here. Use just one non-indented paragraph. Use double spacing throughout
the paper. Avoid the use of abbreviations in your main headings, abstract, and keywords. The
abstract should include, among other essential things, the main question, main aim, the
significance of the study in addition to stating the research method used. Then some briefings
should be stated on the main findings of the research and finally that the study concludes with
some recommendations for further use. All such points should be stated in a very concise and
summarized language. (Words limit -150-250). The abstract should not contain any undefined
abbreviations or unspecified references.
Keywords: First keyword, second keyword, third keyword, fourth keyword, fifth keyword, sixth
keyword, the seventh keyword (TNR12. Keywords should be arranged in alphabetical order and
writtenin lower case)

Introduction
Use Times New Roman 12 points in the whole text. Indent paragraphs by five spaces.
The introduction should move from a general to a specific background through which you
should present the research problem and the rationale of choosing such a problem, i.e. providing
the background and setting the context. State the significance of the study by introducing the
specific context and explaining why the topic is important. Conclude your introduction by
presenting its research questions and the underlying research objectives.
Literature Review

Use this Style for Level Two Headings (TNR12)

Use this Style for Level Three Headings (TNR12)
Do not use numbers or alphabets to organize your headings and sub-headings (A.
Introduction, 1. Introduction). Use APA style throughout the paper. Avoid footnotes in your
manuscript. Use numerals and include your footnotes as endnotes in the endnotes section.
If the quotation is more than 40 words, it should be separated from the surrounding text
and have a .5 indent set from the left margin. Provide citation information. The text after
the block quotation begins on its own line, with no indentation. If the quotation is not
more than 40 words, it should not be block quotations. (author, date, p. page number)

Use theoretical framework(s) relevant to your study and review related literature of more recent
studies. Define key concepts and support your arguments with quotes. The literature review is
not just a description of previous studies It is a summary and a synthesis through which you
compare and contrast different views, studies, and approaches to identify the literary gap
existing in the literature related to your subject.
 Method
In this section, describe in detail how you conducted the study. Provide a complete and concise
description of the methods and methodologies used in data collection so that you can confirm the
validity and reliability of your research findings to the readers as well as allow experts to replicate the
work. Methods, which have already been published, should be referenced. It is important to divide the
method section into sub-sections where you can describe the participants, the instruments, and the
research procedures.

Participants
In this sub-heading, you have to describe the sample who participated in your study and the
setting where the research took place. You should also present some details on how the sample was
selected, its size, number, and relevant democratic characteristics. You can use tables if it isneeded.

Instruments
Describing the instruments used in data collection is also relevant and important. The
description should be accompanied by identifying the purpose of selecting these research tools.
Provide enough details of the instruments and if they are used by other scholars, you should give an
account of their validity and reliability. You should also describe the time used in the experiments,
the type, and the number of the items. You should also explain how you have built your research
instruments in case you have developed a test, an interview, or a questionnaire.

Procedures
In this section, try to describe in detail how the study was conducted. It is an important
section for studies that are based on experiments. You can even provide a timetable for the different
steps and stages of the research.

Results
In this section, you should present the findings of the study objectively by inserting
numbers, tables, and figures. In the discussion section, you can restate your hypotheses and answer
your research questions. As an author of the paper, you should guide your reader through the
analysis and avoid including a detailed description of narration or more details about tables and
figures. Try to give a general description since the information found in the table can give the reader
an idea.

To organize your tables, each table should have a number and a title. Make sure the table
titles are specific and clear. Limit the tables to the essential ones. Tables should be numbered with
sequential Arabic figures: Table 1, Table 2, and so on. Do not number your tables with references to
chapter number or with letters (i.e. Table 2.4). Your figures or tables should fit within your paper’s
margins. Any fonts used within your number should be between eight and fourteen points. The title
should be flush left, in italics, title case, and not bolded, underlined, or in quotation marks. It should
appear directly above your table. Tables that are too long or too wide for a single page may be typed
in a smaller font or you could place them as appendix A, B, etc. and refer to them in the text.

Discussion
In this section, you should discuss, explain, and interpret your findings. You should
show the significance of the study and its importance. It is preferable to give a combination of
your findings and support them with previous studies and scholars’ views and arguments which
you have already included and mentioned in your literature review section. If your findings are
different from your hypotheses, you have to explain the reasons. You should avoid inserting
quotes in this section.
In this section, you may also interpret your findings by acknowledging the limitations of
the study. You can also return to explain the research problem. You can also show the
importance of your study and how it contributed to the understanding of the research problem
and filling the research gap. In your interpretation, you need to engage your reader to think
critically about the research problem and your findings.

Conclusion
This section presents the main conclusions that you set from your study. In this sense,
you should not repeat the findings or their discussion, but you should draw conclusions based
on these findings. This section is an important part of your research since it gives the reader an
idea about the practical implications, and provides him with a roadmap for future research on
the subject.
Endnotes

Use TNR10. APA does not recommend the use of footnotes. However, if explanatory notes still prove necessary
toyour paper, please place all footnotes on the last page before the references section. But not in the footer.

1. Insert your endnotes here.

2. Number your endnotes.
3. Use a few endnotes.
