 Research Writing Tip of the Month

Begin  your research with a solid Thesis Statement. This is the question you propose to answer in the paper.  

•   Keep it simple.
•   Make it specific. It's easier to do research on a narrowly selected subject.
•   Make sure your idea will work.
•   Check with your professor about the suitability of the thesis to the assignment.
•   Check in the library to make sure there's enough resources on your topic.
