Tecnologia distribuída, regulação centralizada: desafios e oportunidades.
Try to tell a story here, no matter what your field. You are writing for human beings, not computers. What’s the area, what’s the problem you are trying to understand. How? What have you found?
(You are summarizing your core results, not cramming them into this tiny space).
The idea here is to start at the far left, and clarify what the core of what you want to say is first, and then expand on it by moving to the right, one column at a time.
After a couple of “passes” of expanding, you will end up with your complete, and well structured paper on column 5, which you can export separately.
Here’s a (somewhat dated) video which might help.
Write a summary of the question(s) you are trying to answer.
What is the state of the world before your research came along?
Also, answer the harsh but important question: Who cares?
In writing this, you can start general, but make sure clearly define the “before” state of the world’s knowledge for the specific area this paper is addressing.
You have established the core question(s) of your research. Now introduce the tools you are going to use to understand it.
What happened (objectively)?
Do not interpret, simply state the facts.
Let’s be honest: the first thing most of us do when skimming a paper is look at the figures. If your key results can be presented in figures, then start with that, and structure your paper around that.
Results are objective, but science isn’t about listing data, it’s about extracting meaning from what we observe.
What do your results tell you about the core problem you were investigating?
Bring it back to the big picture. How do your results fit into the current body of knowledge?
Most importantly, how can these results help you ask better questions?
Here you can expand on your introduction. To guide your writing, title this card with assertive statements:
Instead of “Problem Description”, be direct: “The problem is that X doesn’t do Y.”
More details on the method, experiment design, etc.
Remember that these are cards, so you can drag and drop them to rearrange if necessary.

If you need a checklist to make sure you address all points, go ahead:
You can add figures if you’d like:
Remember these are cards so you can rearrange your results at will.
Any subcards will follow.
Expand on your conclusion summary, and add more details to it.
Or you can simply list your references here:

Some other note. For example:
“ #Xusheng, make sure you include the voltage you used.”
(the # syntax makes it easier to search for & filter comments directed at a specific person).
