Starting a research paper can be challenging, but with some resources and a little bit of luck, you can make it through the writing process. Below are some tips to consider.
Be Organized
1. Create an outline for your paper. This will help you gather your thoughts and formulate your thesis or research question. An outline can also help you track your ideas and the sources that you plan to use in your paper. You can view a sample research paper outlinefrom Gallaudet University.
Go BEYOND Spell Check
2. Don't submit your paper with errors. Have a friend (preferably one who's a good writer) or an Academic Learning Center staff member review your paper for spelling/grammar errors and clarity. Your paper should make sense and be easy to read.
Just Do It
3. Don't save your paper writing until the night before it's due. If you need help figuring out what you need in order to write and finish your paper, you can use the Research Paper Planner from Baylor University. The Harris Campus Library also has a copy of the Writer's Harbrace Manual on reserve for your writing needs.
