Research: Your research should include the required MLA source information and any notes that you take. You will need to research information from at least three different sources. A total of three (full) pages of notes is the minimum allowed for full credit. As you research your topic, you should be asking yourself Who? What? When? Where? and especially, Why should my reader care? Your research notes are due Tuesday, April 26th. Paper: Your paper must follow MLA format. You will be required to include parenthetical citations and a works cited page. This paper should thoroughly describe and define your topic. The most effective papers will develop a thesis (prove a point). Your first draft will be due at the beginning of class on Thursday, May 5th. Your Final Draft will be due Thursday, May 12th. A penalty of 8pts will be given for each day a paper is late. No discs/drives or excuses will be accepted. Grade: You will be given a separate grade for each component.

Dates are yet to be determined. Topic Ideas! The first step in writing an effective research paper is selecting an engaging, productive topic. Look through the 30+ topics below, and circle the one(s) that interest you the most. You should begin your initial database and general internet research before getting into the media center to see if there is adequate material available for that topic. Note that websites like wikipedia are adequate for topic summaries and very general background information early in the research process, but these sites are inadequate for your final 3+ research citations.
