The Research Process

Select a topic: What am I interested in knowing more about?

Find resources: Let’s see what the library has on this topic.

Gathering facts: Dig, dig, dig to find the juicy details.

Write the paper: What does all this information I have found say about my original question?

Edit and format: I should check to make sure my bibliography is formatted correctly and reread my paper.

DONE!!
