Dwight Said:

Do all online colleges require writing long research papers and group projects?

We Answered:

It's online, so how else are they supposed to gauge how well you know a subject than to have you write about it?

Yes, almost all online colleges will be like that. It's just a way for you to learn. Actually, if a program didn't have you write research papers or anything, I would highly doubt it is a respectable college or program...

Jimmie Said:

Can a person make a living writing academic research papers?

We Answered:

"Making money" in academic research is a matter of obtaining grants or working as a professor. In either case, money is provided in the expectation that you will have your papers published in peer reviewed journals. Grants are provided in anticipation of a report or study of interest to the organization paying for your time. A tenure track professor is graded by their department, in part, by how successful they are at turning the papers they write into articles in peer reviewed journals. The weight this publication success carries in the overall grade for the professor depends on the goals and objectives of the department within the college within the university. Ivy League and other top notch institutions put tremendous pressure on their professors to publish academic research papers. If your papers are reliably published in peer reviewed journals, you will "make a living writhing academic research papers."

Theodore Said:

What top-level domains should I avoid when writing research papers?

We Answered:

Particularly, never mention Wikipedia (or any other encyclopedia) as your source, because that is *sure* to get ensure a lower score. If possible, try to see that your sources are .edu / .gov sites. (I don't know which topic you're writing the paper on - the availability of data online, and what kind of websites they are in - would depend from topic-to-topic.)

Ben Said:

How not to get frustrated and bored when writing research papers?

We Answered:

If it's a really long assignment, get your favorite snack and a drink before you start. This will help to keep your mind off of it a little. Also try 35 minutes of working and then a 10 minute break, and just repeat that until it's finished. It's worked really well for me in the past. Hope this helps!
