THE RESEARCH ESSAY:Helpful advice on creating a topic to be Reseached

Helpful advice on creating a topic to be Reseached

Decided on the topic or problem you would like to reasearch. Your topic should be focused (not too broad or too narrow). You want to make sure that the topic has enough sources available for you to provide support. The research essay should have clear direction as to where it is going and why.

1.Create a thesis for the research essay, it will help in the research process
My example:
"Video games"-too broad
"Video games and movies"-not focussed
"Vidoe games and the impact on 3D movies"-clear and focussed

2.Encourage the reader to want to find out more about the topic
What is the problem?
Why should it be researched?
Why write about the problem?
Why do the readers want to know more about the topic?

3.Brainstorm ideas on the topic
What is known about the topic?
What needs to be researched?
What key ideas can be used to research the topic?
Where can information about the subject be found?
