Chalk Talk: How to Write a Quality Research Paper
It can be difficult to write a quality research paper at any time. But when it is assigned by a teacher, you have no choice. The typical research paper is often worth almost as much or the same amount as a test; so these should not be taken lightly. To begin, start researching your topic. Make sure that you use reputable sources such as journals, scholarly articles, books, and others. As you research, write down relevant quotes making sure that you write down the source in which you found it. Also, as you research, keep a record of each book, article, journal, or source you have used as you would sight it in APA or MLA format or the format your teacher specifies. Once you have good research and sources, you are ready to outline and draft your paper. Be sure to site sources used in any claims or quotes you make. Even ideas from another source should be sighted. It is only considered common knowledge if it can be found in three or more sources. After the draft is written, revise it and have several other classmates or teachers proof read it. Make sure you have a title page and a bibliography. You are ready to turn in your final work.
