Tips and things to keep in mind when writing a research essay?

We Answered:

Remember to stay organized. This essay is persuasive as well as research, so you need to do some reading and find out how YOU feel about the funding. Once you've decided, you list your reasons pro and con and put the relevant research under each reason. You need reasons for both sides, no matter what you persoanlly believe, because you need to be able to anticipate the reasons that will be used against your point of view and then refute them. It might help you to make a two-column chart of your arguments and evidence. Good luck!

Tips on writing a Research Essay?

We Answered:

you only have to cite things if you have copied it exactly, or just used most of the quote. If you take the information you learned and put it into your own sentences, with your own thoughts then your good to not cite. As for quotes, only use a few where relevant, and remember to introduce the quotes before hand so its not just there.

How would one go about writing a good thesis statement for a research essay?

We Answered:

The thesis statement is supposed to catch the reader's attention. You should try to sum up your paper in it but do it in a way that questions the reader and grabs their attention. I'm not familiar with the poem, unfortunately, or I might be able to write one for you.

I'd suggest googling for awhile on how to write a thesis statement just to get a good idea of what they should look like and such. In 11th grade we were directed to some really good websites that summed it up...Let me see if I can dig one up, brb:

Okay, there were a bunch of really good results! Go on google and type MLA Thesis Statement Examples, or just MLA Thesis Statement and you'll find a bunch of reputable sites that will be able to help you! :) Good luck!

Writing a research essay on censorship and video games. In need of sources and if possible legislation.?

We Answered:

Maybe the thesis could have something to do with the psychological effects of violent video games on social development in children. Believe it or not, it is a relatively new area of research in psychology and a lot of conflicting conclusions.

Here is a link that will give you more information:

Should it be illegal for students to pay essay writing companies to write their research/ term papers?

We Answered:

That's a fine line to the legallity of it. Yes, it is plagerism. If you got caught, would you try to go after the company you paid to write your essay to possibly lose a second time?

Colleges are getting better at catching plagerists. They get programs that scan papers and do searches on-line for exact text matches. Too many per paper without referencing and you are called on it by the prof. They also set up dummy accounts with the on-line paper sellers to search for work turned in by students looking for copied papers.

I have found some that I actually write better than most when it comes to papers. I don't know why. I have had people read my papers for flow and fluidity. Many people have stated "you should change this or that". When I have followed their advice, I get a negative comment on from the professor on the change. When I stick with my gut feeling that what I wrote is better than the suggestion, I usually get a "Yes!" or similar kudo in that section.
