The main point the author is trying to convey in this
chapter is how to go about your research paper and “write with confidence”
which means writing your paper and feeling like it has a strong point, which
readers can relate to. This chapter gives many good pointers on what a good
paper is made up of, including good sources, developing a strong position which
is crucial to a research paper, understanding genres and how important your
audience is, and many others. Another really important thing to do is to
construct a project timeline because it is very common to put it off and/or
lose track of time, especially when the essay is over 2,000 words and has to
contain numerous credible resources throughout the paper. This chapter is very
helpful with including the tips to choose an appropriate topic. These include
analyzing your assignment; who is your audience and what would urge them to
read the paper, what type of document you’re writing. Generating ideas about
appropriate topics; Brainstorming, looping, and clustering are good ways to do
so. Consider your writing situation; decide on the best topic that will give
you the most information while being intriguing and keep the audience’s
attention throughout the paper. Overall this was a very helpful chapter and I
will be using these tips to help me with my paper.
