Example:
I found module two to be extremely helpful because it teaches someone how to decide on a focused topic. It helps you decide if a topic is too broad or narrow by teaching you to focus on answering a question you may have. It also claims if you are interested in the topic you will do better because you can answer the simple questions like who, what when where and why? Module two on developing a focused topic also said to brainstorm ideas and look for multiple sources to answer your questions. This next tip is about how to find that information. The second study tip to make a research paper go from good to excellent was the one search. ISU has a one search that can help you narrow down information. The one source has a plethora of books and articles to find what you are looking for. You can look for books using call numbers. Publishers, dates, field of study and floor. One source also has Liberians so do not be shy if you cannot find something you are looking for. The last great study tip is how to find accurate internet website sources because not everything on the internet is true. That may be contrary to popular belief but finding reliable and accurate sources that are current and hold no biases will go along way in a research paper. If you find a website that makes a claim it is good to fact check them by using other sources to see if it is biased, lacks authority, or nonobjective. It is important to stray far away from subjective statements and find what is true. Be sure if you find something that is true, be sure to check when the article was published to determine if the information is still current. |
