The first chapter of the research is entitled the problem or the  problem and its background its purpose is to introduce the problem clarify important variables and delimitation, and its significance to the field study. It has the following essential elements. •









INTRODUCTION  STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

SCOPE AND DELIMITATION  SIGNIFICANT OF THE STUDY  NOTES IN CHAPTER I

THE RESEARCH TITLE 

GENERALLY THE TITLE;

1.

SHOULD SUMMARIZE THE MAIN IDEA OF THE PAPER;
