Throughout your life you make connections with various things. In science you make connections all the time, connecting different texts, and connecting data. Without theses connections it would be difficult to build information. If you look back at the “IMRAD Cheat Sheet” in all of the different sections, connection can be placed in, introduction and importance, methods, results, and discussion. In some parts the connections may be greater but it is still present and impacting the scientific Discourse. One specific part of the text where connection is extremely present is in the introduction section. Carnegie Mellon University says in the “IMRAD Cheat Sheet” “Discuss the current state of research in your field, expose a “gap” or problem in the field, and then explain why your present research is a timely and necessary solution to that gap”. This text is explaining that even before you write a scientific research paper you find that starting information for a different source and that is a connection. In Christina Haas text she uses the word rhetorical when discussing scientific literacy, that can go along with connections in the sense that knowledge is build of knowledge.

Throughout your life, you make connections with various things. In science you make connections all the time, connecting different texts, and connecting data. Without these connections, it would be difficult to build information. If you look back at the “IMRAD Cheat Sheet”, a connection can be placed in, introduction and importance, methods, results, and discussion. The connections are present and impacting the scientific Discourse. One specific part of the text where a connection is extremely present is in the introduction section. Carnegie Mellon University says in the “IMRAD Cheat Sheet’ “Discuss the current state of research in your field, expose a “gap” or problem in the field, and then explain why your present research is a timely and necessary solution to that gap”. This text is explaining that even before you write a scientific research paper you find that your starting information is from a different source and that is a connection. In Christina Haas text she uses the word rhetorical when discussing scientific literacy, that can go along with connections in the sense that knowledge is built off knowledge. Without others knowledge, we would not be as far as we are in life. We connect multiple aspects of science and build off of others knowledge every day. While scientists build off each other scientists also connect with readers. Haas says in her text  “Knowledge of contexts will aid a readers’ interpretation, and indeed, knowing something about cultural and historical contexts can reveal a great deal about discourse participants, and vice versa.” (48). Haas is explaining the connection between the author and the reader of a scientific text. The connection between different scientists is just as strong between the connection with the reader and the author. If the connection between the two is strong then the reader can take more from the text and build off of it.
