Research Paper
You will write a research paper on one of the topics provided. The goal of the research paper is to
answer a question and provide your own interpretation of a subject or situation. Your paper will be an
argument; therefore, you will need to take a stand on the issue.
Format
Introduction: Provide a brief background or discussion of the problem you are researching, a brief
history of the problem, the purpose of the research, and your thesis – the answer to your research
question. This may require more than one paragraph.
Body: Use the body to address the main ideas and categories that support your thesis, what you have
discovered, and methods used. The evidence that you present will support your claim and can include
graphs, charts, or experiments. Remember a major point may take two (2) or more paragraphs to
address the information.
Counter-Argument: This is an argument; consequently your research will uncover sources that are
contrary to your stance. Choose the best place to acknowledge opposing arguments or claims based on
the organization of your paper. Opposing arguments can be in the introduction, the paragraph
immediately following the introduction, or in the paragraph that addresses a particular point.
Rebuttal: Refute the opposition
Conclusion: Restate your claim and provide completion, a sense of closure
