Finding and Researching Your Paper Topic

Did you miss one of the writing and research workshops? You can find links to the video replays in our Finding and Researching Your Paper Topic guide in the workshop tab.

The Finding and Researching Your Paper Topic workshop prepares you for the research involved in writing a Capstone, WIE or Individual Research Paper.

Taught by Meredith Kostek, this workshop focuses on skills you will need to complete your required research paper.

The researching workshop will be Tuesday, September 19th at noon in Lezak and again at 4:30 over Zoom. For more Zoom information, fill out this form. Topics covered in the research workshop include: choosing your paper topic, preemption, best sources and strategies for your research, keeping current in your research, and tracking and managing your research.

The companion writing workshop, The Writing Center Workshop, was held on Tuesday, September 11th.

The workshops are required for all students writing an Individual Research Paper and highly recommended for students writing a Capstone or WIE.

A recording of the workshops will be made available after both workshops have been presented in the Finding and Researching Your Paper guide.
