- This part may explain the significance of the research, briefly argue the past studies and state the emergence challenge of the issue.
Problem Statement/Arguments
- What issue are we attempting to address? Is it a broad approach or for a specific situation?
- In this part, we should clearly define the topic of the research as well as the research question.
Approach/Proposed Methods
