Recently, we've been doing a research paper in English and History class. We did all the research in History and now we are writing it in English. When we started, I thought my topic was pretty good and clever, so I stuck with it! Well, about a week ago, I wasn't feeling the same about my topic as I was when we started. I was struggling to get relevant research and I just wasn't really grasping the different things we needed to do for this paper. After talking to my teachers last week, I think I finally have a very good understanding of what I need to do.
In class, and at home we have been told to work on an outline, and try to do a detailed one too. This weekend I tried to make mine as detailed as possible. I'm not quite sure if it is perfect but I tried to make it pretty detailed. I also did some more research on my topic and created a couple new noodle tools cards. I think I might finally have all the research need! I also looked at my thesis a little, but I seemed to struggle a little bit with it so I decided that might need to focus on it a little more and even go see my teacher. Other than that, this paper is going pretty well!
I have the same problem with my paper. I don't think all my research is relevant, but now I'm sure I have enough, and that my paper will be good. As well with the thesis. What's your topic? It'd be interesting to know!
