I am a self-taught candidate, and the examiner's college is university of international business and economics. I have appointed a tutor to write my graduation thesis, but I will send an email to my tutor. Undergraduate majors (including undergraduate and independent undergraduate course) are required to write graduation thesis (graduation design of engineering major and clinical practice of medical major) and its defense assessment after passing the examination results of various professional courses. Graduation thesis writing and defense examination is one of the important links to obtain the undergraduate graduation certificate of higher education self-study examination, and it is also one of the important bases to measure whether the graduates from self-study examination reach the academic level of the same level and major in full-time ordinary colleges and universities. However, due to the lack of systematic classroom teaching and usual training, many candidates often feel great pressure in independent writing of graduation thesis, and it is difficult to write. Therefore, it is of great significance to guide the graduation thesis writing of self-taught undergraduates.

This paper tries to make a brief discussion on how to write a graduation thesis for reference.

Graduation thesis is the last link for undergraduates majoring in higher education self-study examination to complete their undergraduate studies. For candidates, it is a summative independent assignment, which aims to sum up their own learning results and cultivate their ability to solve practical problems by comprehensively applying what they have learned. Stylistically speaking, it is also a meaningful essay for scientific research and exploration of practical or theoretical problems in a certain professional field. The writing of graduation thesis can be divided into two steps, namely, topic selection and research topic.

The first is the topic selection. Topic selection is the key to success or failure of thesis writing. Because choosing a topic is the first step in writing a graduation thesis, it is actually to determine the question of "what to write", that is, to determine the direction of scientific research. If "what to write" is not clear, "how to write" is impossible.

The practice and requirement of the Self-taught Examination Office of the Ministry of Education on the topic selection of graduation thesis is that "in order to encourage the combination of theory and work practice, candidates can put forward the topic selection according to their own work and submit it to the examiner's school for approval. Thesis topics can also be published by the examiner's school, and candidates can choose by themselves. The overall requirements of graduation thesis should be consistent with ordinary full-time colleges and universities, so as to test candidates' comprehensive application of professional knowledge through thesis writing and defense assessment. " However, regardless of whether candidates choose their own topics at will or choose from the designated topics announced by the examiner colleges, they should insist on choosing practical topics with scientific value and practical significance. Choosing the right topic is half the battle for graduation thesis.

First, we should insist on choosing topics with scientific value and practical significance. The purpose of scientific research is to better understand and transform the world, thus promoting the continuous progress and development of society. Therefore, the topic selection of graduation thesis must be closely combined with the needs of socialist material civilization and spiritual civilization construction, with promoting the development of scientific undertakings and solving practical problems as the starting point and destination. The topic selection should conform to the correct direction of scientific research, be novel and innovative, and have theoretical value and practical guiding significance or promoting effect. A meaningless research, even if it takes a lot of energy and the expression is perfect, is worthless. Specifically, candidates can choose topics from the following three aspects. First of all, we should choose a topic from the disadvantages of reality and learn professional knowledge. We should not only stay in books and theories, but also try to integrate theory with practice and use our professional knowledge to find and solve problems that need to be solved urgently in work practice. Secondly, we should select topics from the blank and marginal fields of scientific research and conduct scientific research.

There are still many virgin lands that have not been reclaimed, and there are still many defects and gaps that need to be filled. Candidates should have unique vision and advanced consciousness to think, discover and study. Finally, we should choose the topic from finding the shortcomings and mistakes of previous studies. Many of the research topics put forward by predecessors have achieved initial research results, but with the continuous development of society, they still need to be enriched, improved and developed. This supplementary or revised research topic also has scientific value and practical guiding significance.

Second, we should choose practical topics according to our own abilities. The writing of graduation thesis is a kind of creative labor, which requires not only the personal views and opinions of candidates, but also certain objective conditions. Because the subjective and objective conditions of candidates are different, they should also choose the topic according to their own specialties, interests and objective conditions. Specifically, candidates can comprehensively consider the following three aspects. First of all, there should be sufficient sources of information. "A clever woman can't cook without rice", and it is difficult to write a high-quality paper in the absence of information. Choosing a subject with rich data sources is very helpful for the in-depth research and development of the subject. Secondly, you should have a strong interest in research and choose the topics you are interested in, which can stimulate your research enthusiasm, mobilize your initiative and enthusiasm, and complete it with a positive attitude of concentration, carefulness, persistence and patience. Finally, every candidate has his own specialty regardless of his ability level and job position. Choosing a subject that can combine one's own work and give full play to one's professional expertise is of great benefit to the successful completion of the research of the subject.

After choosing the topic, the next job is to study the topic. The general procedure of the research topic is: collecting data, researching information, clarifying arguments, selecting materials, and finally writing, revising and finalizing.

First, the basic work of the research topic-collecting data. Candidates can collect information from three aspects: consulting materials in libraries and reference rooms, doing field research, experiments and observations. The more specific and detailed the information collected, the better. It's best to list the bibliography and detailed plan of information you want to collect. First of all, when consulting materials, we should be familiar with and master the classification of books, be good at using bibliographies and indexes, and skillfully use other reference books, such as yearbooks, abstracts, catalogues, charts, etc. Secondly, doing on-the-spot investigation and research can obtain the most authentic, reliable and abundant first-hand information with clear purpose, clear object and clear content. Survey methods include: general survey, key survey, typical survey and sampling survey. The methods of investigation are: meeting, interview and questionnaire. Finally, about experiment and observation. Experiment and observation are the basic ways to collect scientific data and obtain perceptual knowledge, and are the practical basis for the formation, production, development and testing of scientific theories. This method is often used in the research of science, engineering, medicine and other majors, and should be carefully and comprehensively recorded when using this method.

Second, the key work of the research topic-research data. Candidates should comprehensively browse the collected materials and adopt different reading methods for different materials, such as reading, selective reading, research and so on.

Full-text reading refers to reading the full text, selective reading refers to reading useful parts and contents, and learning refers to reading the contents related to the research topic comprehensively, conscientiously, meticulously, deeply and repeatedly. Think positively in the process of learning. We should use the arguments, arguments, argumentation methods and research methods in books or papers to arouse our own thinking, and use our eyes, hands and brains to exert our imagination and make new creations.

When studying the data, we should also make records of the data.

Third, the core work of the research topic-clarifying arguments and selecting materials. On the basis of studying the data, candidates put forward their own views and opinions, and establish basic arguments and sub-arguments according to the topics. Put forward your own views and highlight new ideas. Innovation is the soul, and you can't just repeat predecessors or follow others' advice. At the same time, we should also prevent the tendency of being greedy for perfection, fearing incompleteness and repeating existing knowledge in large sections, so as not to reflect the characteristics and achievements of our own research.

Select materials according to the established basic arguments and sub-arguments, which are formed on the basis of studying the collected materials. Organizing materials should pay attention to mastering scientific thinking methods and paying attention to the logical relationship and primary and secondary relationship before and after materials.

Fourth, the key work of the research topic-writing. Candidates should pay attention to the following two aspects when writing: the proposed outline and the basic format.

Draw up an outline, including the topic, basic arguments and content outline. The content outline includes major events, middle events and minor events. The quasi-outline is helpful to arrange the logical structure of the full text and construct the basic framework of the paper.

Basic format: General graduation thesis consists of title, abstract, text and references. The title should be direct, specific, eye-catching and concise. In other words, the main points in the paper should be put before the main body of the paper, which is convenient for readers to read, so it should be concise. The text is the core content of graduation thesis, including introduction, theory and conclusion. The introduction mainly explains the reason and significance of studying this topic, and should be written concisely. To make the topic of discussion clear and specific, sometimes it is necessary to write some historical review and current situation analysis, and what supplements, amendments or developments I will have, and briefly introduce the argumentation methods. This part is the main body of the paper, which expresses the author's research results and mainly expounds his own views and arguments. In this part, we should use sufficient and powerful materials to explain our own views and accurately grasp the internal relationship between the levels and paragraphs of the article. A long paper often adopts the method of combining reasoning (that is, the writing method of gradually expanding one argument to another) and sub-argument (that is, juxtaposing several sub-arguments subordinate to the basic argument and discussing them one by one). The conclusion part is the conclusion part of the paper. It is necessary to write the results of the demonstration in a consistent way, and at the same time write the prospect of the research, and mention the problems that need further discussion or possible solutions. Reference refers to some articles or materials studied in the process of writing a paper, and the main ones should be selected and listed at the end of the article.

Fifth, the guarantee of research topic-revision and finalization. Through this link, we can see whether the writing intention is clearly expressed, whether the basic arguments and sub-arguments are accurate and clear, whether the materials are properly used and convincing, whether the arrangement and argumentation of materials have logical effects, whether the structure of large and small paragraphs is complete and natural, whether the sentences and words are correct and appropriate, and whether the article conforms to the norms.

In a word, writing graduation thesis is a complex thinking activity, which is really difficult for self-taught candidates who lack writing experience. Therefore, candidates should "learn and learn, practice and practice" and humbly ask the tutor for advice.
