Avoid writing one paragraph one sentence. The final part of the introduction must include the research aims.
4. RESEARCH METHODS
The main materials of the research method include (1) research design, (2) population and samples; (3) instruments; (4) procedures; and (5) data analysis. The research design includes the research methods and design used. The research design can be presented in a table or figure. The population and sample of research include the total population and samples as well as sampling techniques. Make sure the reason why using the sampling technique. The research instrument includes tools or devices used in research. The instrument used must be clear in terms of type, number, and indicator measured. It must be ensured that the instrument is suitable for use in research. The research procedures include all the steps carried out during the research. All research procedures are written in paragraphs, not in item list/numbering form. If there is a forced list/numbering item, but it is written in paragraph form. Data analysis techniques include all the analysis needed to address the problem or research aims.
5. RESULTS
The research results presented are findings from the research results and not raw data. Research results can be displayed in tables or figures and given information that is easy to understand. Avoid statements in sentences that show tables or figures using the word "below or above".
6. DISCUSSION
This section discusses all research findings supported by supporting references. References that support the discussion are suggested from the results of previous studies and should not be more than the last 10 years. The discussion section must contain elements (what else) to compare whether or not the results of the research are carried out with previous research or others. The discussion also includes an element (why) which shows the relationship between the results obtained and the basic concepts and or hypotheses.
7. CONCLUSION
Conclusions must answer the problem or research objectives, or can also produce a new theory or concept based on existing facts/analysis.

Conclusions are written in one paragraph in a concise, concise, and clear manner and written in paragraph form, not in the form of item list/numbering. If you have suggestions from the research you can state them briefly and clearly.
8. ACKNOWLEDGMENT (IF ANY)
Acknowledgments contain appreciation given by the authors to all those who have contributed to the research.
