Research Project Overview
*PLEASE HIGHLIGHT or UNDERLINE your essay’s thesis in your final project before turning this in.
As part of the final requirements for English 102, you will need to develop an extensive research paper, no less than 2500 words in length, on one major topic that considers and employs original research from at least 10 different quality sources. This topic should be derived from your interest in a major, field of study, debate, dilemma, event, phenomena, issue, problem, quandary, or otherwise researchable and argument-worthy idea. Your topic selection is open, but subject to my approval. Ultimately, you want to use this as a time to explore something related to an area of expertise you may need to engage in again in the future because of a future professional or career choice or personal advocacy or lifestyle choice.
For this project, your goals are to identify and research a viable topic to eventually argue a point pertinent to that topic. To develop the information literacy and research skills necessary for success in this course and in your future college courses, you will be following several steps and employing a number of strategies in this project. Your goals are to explore and incorporate various research angles and appropriate sources — in addition to reading and writing skills – for developing your topic and validating your eventual thesis. The process is designed to encourage original ideas and cultivate genuine and authentic research connections.
The culminating project will be a final, formal research paper, no less than 2500 words in length, prepared in proper MLA format and documentation another appropriate system. This system should be chosen dependent on the discipline or subject matter of the project. Like your proposal, you will need to include an annotated bibliography with both Works Cited and Works Consulted. This essay will employ significant source work to support an original thesis argument, and should demonstrate a balanced and knowledgeable understanding of the available research. See related rubrics for additional commentary.
