Q: How to write the summary of chapter one of a research project?
In my research project, I am not sure how to write chapter one summary.
Your question is unclear. Are you referring to the "Thesis summary" that is often a part of the first chapter of a thesis along with the introduction? Or do you want to know how to write the summary of the first chapter of your thesis?
If it's the latter, you would need generic inputs on how to write the summary of any chapter of a book or a thesis. Basically, a summary of any chapter would just highlight the main points that have been discussed in that chapter. It should be a highly condensed version of whatever you have covered in that chapter.
If you wish to know about the "Thesis Summary," I would suggest you first go through the guidelines provided by your univeristy/institution. Each university has different requirements and while some require a chapter-wise summary of the entire thesis, others focus on the main elements, such as problem statement, methodology, reults, conclusion and implication. You can also clarisy your doubts with your supervisor before you start writing.
