At times, the most difficult part is just settling on a topic. Some feel as though a bit of guidance would be productive, while others get enthusiastic about choosing what they prefer. If you’re stuck in that stage, worry no more! We’ve got just what you need. As we help you navigate through the information fog, your only task would be to consider a few things:
- What interests you?
- Do you have an opinion or bias on an issue? Choose a side
- Why did you choose this topic?
- Who is the targeted audience?
Now once you’ve made a decision, lets help you narrow it down for a more informative search. Here are a few helpful guidelines in getting started:
- gather basic information
- try to find a problem or issue related to that topic
- acquire as much information needed to address the question or issue
Following this as a model forces you to narrow down and focus on an issue rather than paraphrasing the information found (ALERT: PLAGARISM). The point of a research paper is to think critically about the topic chosen, narrow it down, identify and address a problem, analyze issues and conclude with solutions. Stressed yet? This is why this tool will be your first and final destination for all research writing needs. Lets explore!
