Understanding Reflective Research Papers

As you will know, you will write lots of research papers throughout the course of your academic career. Some of them will be written in high school; some of them will be written in college; and still others will be written beyond that point, in graduate school. One of the most common papers you will find yourself faced with writing is the reflective research paper. As it so happens however, this type of paper is also the least understood by a lot of students. Hopefully, the following post will clear things up for you quite a bit.

Reflective essays and research papers are considered rather easy to write, especially if you are involved in a major or field of study which involves a lot of writing intensive aspects. These days, of course, that could apply to just about any field of study. The funny thing is that not a lot of students are trained when it comes to knowing how to write a reflective research paper. Just to emphasize this point, your humble author hear, English major extraordinaire, had no clue what this kind of paper entailed!

However, the good news is that once you understand what precisely a reflective research paper entails, you will likely find it one of the easiest research paper styles to master. Just as the term itself implies, a paper like this is going to be based partly on reflection. Naturally, a reflective essay can rely more on the author’s own reflection; when research is involved, you have to balance a very fine line. You will get to express your own ideas, but you have to incorporate plenty of factual information to firmly back up what you think and feel. This will allow you to write many, many interesting research papers, but straddling that line is incredibly important. Otherwise, you might as well just be writing an essay.

Now, as to this balance we keep talking about, you have to be extremely careful. You cannot express your own personal thoughts too much, and you have to be careful and tasteful about the way you present them. Naturally there will be some bias in a paper like this, simply because it does rely on your own reflections quite a bit. However, as we mentioned, it is vital to make sure that there is plenty of factual information to back up your personal thoughts. There has to be something concrete and logical there.

Writing a reflective research paper provides you with a wealth of different opportunities to come up with interesting research paper topic ideas, you simply have to choose carefully and, perhaps more importantly, you have to write carefully. You can always talk to your instructor to get a better idea of how to outline your paper if you are not sure how to go about this. Just remember that these research papers provide you with the unique opportunity to include your personal thoughts and opinions, which can make the whole writing process be much more interesting for you.

How to Come Up with Good Middle School Research Paper Topics

Writing research papers in middle school may not seem like such a big deal, but those papers will give you excellent foundations in academic writing. To put it quite simply, as unlikely as it may seem, learning how to come up with good middle school research paper topics is paramount in learning how to come up with good paper topics in high school, undergraduate school, and on to graduate school. What you learn about writing in middle school is going to give you the basic foundation you need to become an excellent writer as you continue on through your academic career.

Good topics are the key to writing interesting research papers — and let’s face it, the most interesting research papers are the ones which will get the highest grades. Your teachers may be the ones giving you these assignments, but just because they are required does not mean that your teachers want to be bored when they read them. Spelling every word correctly, having impeccable grammar, and being a good technical writer can only take you so far. Learning to write fun to read middle school research paper topics is the first step in becoming a writer who puts together intriguing papers.

Now, without question, middle school research paper topics are a lot different from the topics you will encounter during your high school years and in your college years. That goes without saying. In middle school, your topics can be somewhat simpler. Generally you will get practice primarily by writing English research papers. Still and all, just because the papers themselves may not be that complicated does not mean that they do not present a wonderful opportunity to learn how to create a topic which is both enlightening and interesting to read.

There are a few things you need to do when thinking about topics in middle school. Naturally you need to worry about such things as research paper format and technicalities of that nature, but honestly, the actual “meat” of your paper needs to be a primary concern. Everything else can wait for the editing process.

One thing you need to do when writing research papers in middle school is to make sure that you are interested in the subject about which you choose to write. Otherwise your disinterest is going to show through your writing. You also need to make sure that your reader will find it interesting. If you are working with a somewhat bland assigned topic, then do your best to make your writing style such that the topic shines no matter what. In middle school, you also want to choose a topic you know something about, because you do not want to overwhelm yourself. Your topic needs to lend itself well to research.

You will have a lot of opportunities to come up with good middle school research paper topics during those years of your academic career. You will have plenty of essays and research papers to write, so you should view each one as an opportunity to polish and hone your craft.

Essays and Research Papers – Similarities and differences

There are many ways for us to define the similarities and different aspect so essays and research papers. Not all of us are really eager to find this out but it is important that you know how to separate a research paper from an ordinary essay.

Let us start with the similar things that we can find among essays and research papers. An essay has at least three parts. These are the introduction, body and the conclusion. These parts are also to be found among research papers so learning the type of writing involved will always be evident between any of the two types of articles. Also, essays and research papers will always have a core idea, the thesis statement. This is something that is really important in writing because you want to present a goal in writing. Moreover, essays and research papers can use different types of citation styles. For example an APA style research paper can also have the same characteristics as with an essay in the same category of citing resources.

Now, if we are going to differentiate essays and research papers, there are also some pointers to consider. First of all, an essay is shorter than a research paper. Depending on the topic and the writing goal, essays are usually satisfied with the three parts of paragraph writing. For a research paper, there is always a necessity to add more parts like Literature Review, Methodology, Data, Analysis and Results. This research paper format is important to consider. Also, a research paper demands that you do actual researching. You want to prove something using technical principles of knowledge seeking which is not that always necessary for essays. You can simply write an essay that can tell fictional story, argue and describe things.

Essays and research papers are two of the most important types of school projects. Make sure that you know the difference and similarities of these articles.

The Benefits of Research Paper Sample Outlines

Writing a research paper is a meticulous and involved process; it can greatly be helped by writing an outline, which can, in turn, be benefited by checking out a research paper sample outline.  That way you can see what is expected of you, especially if you are unfamiliar with writing outlines.  Generally, especially in high school and during your first years at a college or university, your teachers and professors will actually require you to turn in your outline, either before you turn in your paper or along with your final draft.

A research paper sample outline will show you a number of things.  The good thing about an outline is that, for the most part, it does not matter what kind of research paper format you have to choose.  APA, MLA, Chicago style: the only difference might be the use of Roman numerals versus letters and things of that nature.  You might, in some cases, be asked to permit the first draft of an outline when submitting a research paper proposal; again, your teacher or professor might ask you to submit an outline before your final draft; some instructors simply want you to include your outline with the final draft of your research paper.

In addition to knowing how to cite research papers, knowing how to write outlines is extremely crucial.  There are many differences between the outlines written in high school and the ones your professors will expect.  On a superficial level, they are the same; however, at the college level, your professors will expect you to be much more detailed and precise.

All that being said, let’s take a look at a research paper sample outline.  This one is rather generic and is based on how running can make you healthier.  Yes, yes, not the most interesting research paper, but the format seen in this sample will work well for any topic.

I. Introduction
A. This is your thesis statement; generally, it should be a single, concise, and declarative sentence.  At most, it should be no more than two.  For a paper based on the benefits of running, it could be something as simple as, “Running is a great way to stay healthy because it improves circulation, physical health, and strength, as well as developing muscles and controlling weight.”

II. Body
A. Cardiovascular health
1. Strengthens heart
2. Improves blood pressure
3. Improves circulation

B. Weight control
1. Improves self control
2. Burns calories
3. Incentive for healthy eating habits
4. Appetite suppressant

C. Developing muscles
1. Improves muscle tone
2. Improves the body’s contours
3. Develops strength
4. Better endurance

D. Overall well being
1. Better sleep
2. Reduces depression
3. Improves vitality

III. Conclusion
A. Reiteration of thesis statement, tied into the body of the paper.

As you cans see, a research paper sample outline is going to help you quite a lot.  It is going to, among other things, tell you exactly the kind of information you need to write good essays and research papers.

Writing a Chicago Style Research Paper

What Chicago Style Research Papers Require

You never know what format your research paper will require; most require MLA and APA format, but due to the nature of your course or the preferences of your professor, you will no doubt find yourself writing many a Chicago style research paper as well. The format is not really difficult to follow, and there are several ways to tell if a paper should indeed follow this style.

A Chicago style research paper is most common in history courses, as well as other courses based in the humanities.  Generally, in the essays and research papers which require Chicago format, you will have to write a response to a couple of different readings.  Of course, research papers in this style will require a lot of different sources.

The main thing to remember about this research paper format is that it utilizes footnotes, or endnotes; whatever you want to call them, they are often difficult for students to deal with the first time they write a Chicago paper.  It is far easier to write up a simple in text citation, as is seen in other research paper styles like APA and MLA.  However, once you get the hang of marking your footnotes, you will find it gets easier and easier to remember them.  Like any other type of paper, it will include a section devoted to the bibliography.

For the sake of this article, let’s say you are writing a paper an anthropology class – Magic and Religion in Preliterate Society, for example.  Anthropology is a humanities course, and would reasonably require this particular research paper format.  Here is an example of what a footnote would look like in a Chicago based paper:

In the Beng culture, there is a disease known as gbri which means dirt and “a baby gets it if she’s touched by a woman who’s considered sexually polluted.”¹

The endnote (or footnote) will look like this:

1. Alma Gottlieb and Philip Graham, Parallel Worlds: An Anthropologist and a Writer Encounter Africa (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1993), 242.

As you can see, the name of the author – or authors – go first, followed by the title of the document.  It is not underlined.  The city in which the publisher is located, the name of the publisher, and the year the work was published go in parenthesis.  This is followed by the page of the work on which the quote or citation is located.  As you can also see, this portion of a Chicago style research paper uses commas rather than periods.  The same is not so for the actual citation in the bibliography, which looks like this:

Gottlieb, Alma and Philip Graham. Parallel Worlds: An Anthropologist and a Writer Encounter
Africa.  Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1993.

A Chicago style research paper may seem confusing and even difficult at first, but like say, the going gets much easier as you go along.  If you are having trouble from the get go, just take a look at some research paper examples which utilize this particular format.  Seeing everything “in action” may help you more.

Writing a Hamlet Research Paper

Possible Topics for Hamlet Research Papers

When you get to write a paper, such as a Hamlet research paper, about the Bard’s greatest works, then you are a truly lucky student. English and literature majors in particular should enjoy an assignment like this, if only because Hamlet is one of Shakespeare’s most interesting plays. It is full of betrayal, love, passion, sex, murder, treason, and intrigue. Everyone important is dead by the end of the play, what more could you possibly ask for in a writing assignment? Bearing that in mind, why don’t we take a look at some very provocative topics you could use when writing a paper on Hamlet?

The first thing you have to realize is how many interesting research paper topics there are when you are asked to write a Hamlet research paper. The entire play is interesting. It is like the modern day version of a juicy murder mystery, but beautifully written and full of twists and turns. Hamlet, melancholy and eager to avenge his father’s death, is one of the most thought provoking and intriguing protagonists in all of English literature.

As with a Macbeth research paper, there are many sub plots to consider when choosing a topic. You will find few English research papers more fun than one based on the Bard, who knew better than perhaps any other playwright how to keep his readers always on the edges of their seats. That being said, one possible topic involves focusing on Hamlet’s foils. You have several choices here, namely Horatio, Fortinbras, Claudius, and Laertes. By comparing – and contrasting – Hamlet with each of these characters, you will better be able to understand the personalities and traits of each.

We have mentioned the prince’s melancholy. That itself makes an excellent topic for a Hamlet research paper. For instance, do you think he was too melancholy? It certainly interfered with his ability to act, to confront Claudius, at least in the beginning of the play. Indeed, his deep seeded melancholia even plays a part in the watery death of sweet, mad Ophelia, his beloved. It is his tragic flaw, and many critics and readers believe that it is what led to his ultimate demise. Exploring that idea can make for a great research paper, as long as you know where to look to find the evidence needed to back up that claim.

The prince’s own madness also makes an interesting topic for a Hamlet research paper. Throughout the play, he claims to be faking his madness, yet there is a very real sense of insanity pervasive in his character. A good literary research paper considers everything, both the seen and the unseen, the obvious and the points which are only hinted at in the subtext. The best essays and research papers, no matter what they are based on, consider every angle. That is what makes Hamlet the perfect subject for a paper. From researching whether his love for Ophelia is genuine to turning your attention to the intriguing but short lived characters of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, there are no wrong choices. Shakespeare gives you so much from which to work that the prince’s world is your oyster. Something is unquestionably rotten in the state of Denmark; it is simply up to you to find out what it really is.

Expository essay prompts are especially helpful to college and university levels, no matter the level at which you are studying.  At the most base level, most if not all academic writing involves explanation.  They all have their foundations in the expository essay, just as they all have persuasive roots as well.

Through grades nine through twelve, you will be given a large variety of different high school essay prompts.  No matter whether you are a freshman, a sophomore, a junior, or a senior, your high school teachers are trying to teach you some very important things about writing.  Early on in your high school career, they are trying to teach you technical writing.  You will learn about punctuation, grammar, flow, structure, and even spelling, but what you learn will be much more in depth than what you were taught during elementary and middle school.  As you continue on, however, your teachers have something much different in mind.  Namely, they are preparing you for the essays and research papers you will be faced with in college.  As such, they seek to teach you the fundamentals of persuasive, expository, and personal essay writing.  So, how about we take a look at a few such prompts?

As stated, you will be dealing with various high school essay prompts.  The topics will differ just as much as the preferred format.  It is likely that you will begin to deal with expository essay prompts during your sophomore year, at the very least.  These are especially important, because they teach you how to really explain your point.  Possible writing prompts of this nature include:

Example 1: Being tolerant of someone else’s opinion and point of view is important.  Write an essay which explains why it is so important to try to see things from someone else’s viewpoint.

Example 2: Consider the importance of music in one’s culture.  What is your own culture?  Explain the type of music which is important to your culture and what role that music plays.

Example 3: Using examples from books, television, movies, or your own experiences, write an essay explaining the lengths people may go to in order to survive a particular situation.

Persuasive high school essay prompts are also important.  These will particularly come in handy when you start submitting college applications.  The writing prompts seen there generally you to persuade someone that you are a good candidate for that school.  Possible persuasive essay prompts include:

Example 1: In some countries, young people have to serve time in the military.  Do you think the United States should implement such a requirement?  Why or why not?

Example 2: Your city council is thinking about implementing a curfew for teenagers.  Do you agree with this?  Write an essay persuading your town council to consider your opinion.

Example 3: “It’s not whether you win or lose; it’s how you play the game.” Do you agree with this statement?  Explain your position and convince your readers why they should agree.

These are not the only types of high school essay prompts, of course, but they are the two most common.  You are also likely to see personal essay prompts, which tend to be extreme.  That is, students either find that they are the easiest writing prompts or the most difficult.

The Ins and Outs of Interesting Research Papers
27
September
2008

Writing interesting research papers may seem like the hardest endeavor in the world, but it really is not that difficult at all.  Of course, you have to have some perspective.  When you are given a research paper as an assignment, it naturally seems far more difficult than it actually is, because you have your grade to worry about, you have to think about possible ideas, format of the paper,  being able to get it in on time, et cetera.  This can take up so much room in your mind that actually writing the paper almost becomes unimportant.  That is why planning ahead of time is such a great idea.  That does not mean you have to store up tons of ideas and start writing your papers even before they are do.  It just means that learning how to write a really interesting paper ahead of time can lessen the workload when you do have an assignment due. Note, that a custom term paper may also be a way out.

The first step towards learning to write interesting research papers does not involve writing itself.  Rather, it involves the types of research paper ideas you consider.  The key to writing interesting essays and research papers is choosing thought provoking topics.  Now, as we all know, the word “I” is generally not supposed to appear in academic writing, unless it happens to be a personal or narrative essay, a persuasive essay, et cetera.  However, you can still draw on your own experiences.  If you are given a paper to write in a political science class, for example, and once successfully ran for office in your high school government, you can draw on those experiences.

Interesting research papers can, do, and truthfully should spring what interests you the most – even if you are assigned a paper in a class you are only taking to fulfill a requirement.  Say, for example, you are taking an astronomy class.  You may not be particularly interested in astronomy itself, but perhaps you are interested in the atmosphere on the planet Venus – well, there you go, there is your topic.  There is also no denying the fact that sometimes the most interesting papers spring from controversial research paper topics.

After all, the whole point of research paper writing is not just to learn all you can about a particular subject.  You also want to draw your readers into the essays and research papers you write.  If your reader is not interested, even the most brilliant research will not matter.  However, if you can intrigue your reader, even if it is because you spark his or her ire because the reader has an opposite opinion from the one presented in your paper, you definitely have a winner.

Interesting research papers depend on good research paper topics.  Learning how to craft those beforehand can significantly help you when you get down to the actual research paper writing process.  When you also look into how to create a proper outline and how to manage your time, you may just find that when you do have a paper due, all you will have to do is pick a topic and look into it; getting your thoughts down on paper will take much less time once you know what is needed to write a truly interesting paper.
