Thesis paper

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A handout on Viennese classicism

A thesis paper (also called a handout ) is a statement that does not contain any further information beyond an associated lecture, but rather assesses the content. It is to the listener as an aid in the pursuit of a scientific lecture or Unit serve and can lean to the given there order. The document, which is only a few pages long , is often written in bullet points .

Not useful as a stand-alone work, it also contains the author's judgment, which must be commented on in a discussion. It is possible to differentiate between a thesis paper with regard to content, which deals with the central statements of a work, and a chronological thesis paper, in which the order plays a role. The most important results are presented.

The thesis paper thus consists of theses (short, concisely formulated statements or aspects) that clarify the central theme of the oral presentation and are justified during the lecture through the interpretation of information and data . In the strict sense, a thesis paper does not contain any tables , time series , graphics, etc. These can, if necessary, be distributed separately as a table template (also a form of handout).
