We will start building our research paper #2 in sections.
This week, we will begin with your title page and introduction page for research paper #2 in APA format. Your introduction should include some background or historical information on your topic and a description of the paper’s three main points (arguments). This introduction should tell me what the paper is going to be about. This research paper should not include personal reflections or opinions. It should not include “I” or “me” anywhere in the paper.
- No more than 1-3 paragraphs in length.
- State your thesis in the form of a sentence or two. It should not be in the form of a question. Your thesis should be a brief statement, in your own words, that points out the significant issues about this topic that you discovered in your research.
