Research Project Steps

Each student is required to have at least three research articles from reputable sources. Once we have evaluated the sources, then you may highlight relevant information in each article. Remember, you are using your research to back up or substantiate your opinions. You are not copying sections of the article "wholesale" into your paper. Even though you may think the words in the article you are using sound better than what you would write, you cannot use them. You must read the material, digest it, and then put down your own understanding of it in your own words, along with the conclusions you've come to based on what you've read. This is an essential skill that you will need in college.
