Choosing
a topic to write about as a research paper is very stressful and overwhelming.
I found the article “Choosing a Topic Through Basic Research” to be very
helpful. It gave various amount of tips on how to find a topic that would make
writing a research paper less stressful and more interesting. I always thought
that I had to choose a topic that would make me sound intelligent and would
interest the professor who was reading it. This article told me to pick a topic
that I would enjoy writing about, which never crossed my mind before. I
realized in doing so, I will have more fun in writing my essay and will be able
to compose it in a less amount of time. Not only did this article help me in
less despising an essay by giving me tips, but it also made me realize that if
I were to write a topic about something I am not interested in then my audience
will not find it interesting either because I will end up being redundant in my
essay as well as boring. I am glad to have read this article because from now on,
I will know to pick a topic for my research paper that I enjoy and will be able
to have a strong thesis in doing so.
I also found it very helpful to pick a topic that is both interesting to you and your audience. It makes the process much more enjoyable as well as intriguing to do the research, instead of a chore.
ReplyDeleteI also usually do not choose a topic I’m comfortable with, and usually choose what I think the professor wants to see.
