Abstract

Research writing is the foundation of research reportage and documentation. It is the physical representation of all that the student or researcher must have done and gone through in the process involved in the research proper. It is discovered that students and researchers, especially those in the academia, mix up the processes and sometimes fail to do the right things in the writings. Therefore, a whole lot of junks called research writings in the name of thesis, dissertation, and project come out of the academia. Using the observation method, the paper has deployed pure research (to reappraise and to add to the existing knowledge of students in humanities for better understanding of research), which is under application research type classified by Kumar (2011) as cited in Alabi (2017, p.5). The paper posits that research dissertations, projects, theses in the academia can still follow the laid down rules and regulations. This rests on understanding and implementing all that are entailed in research writing and documentation by those concerned. It is only through thorough and efficient writing, editing, review and documentation processes that written reports can become references for other researchers to access, build upon and use for (human) development and research purposes.
