Purpose
A college research paper is likely different from the report-based research papers you may have written in high school.
The purpose of this paper is thus to 1) introduce you to a basic college research paper format and 2) help you become
more familiar with finding and using sources effectively in college.
Genre & Audience
This analytical mini-research paper should be written for an academic audience. It could be used as a sample of your
writing for a scholarship application or admission into an honor society.
Topic
In Chapter 10, you will read about issues that occur in adolescence and early adulthood as people discover and define
their identities. In this assignment, you will explore one challenge that college students face as they attempt to define
who they are. ?Select a topic below for your research paper. If you have a different topic you’d like to research, your
topic must be approved ?by Thursday, February 14?.

______________ ?
Task
Your research paper will first introduce the challenge you chose, describing college students’ struggles with this
challenge and its effects on them, their identity development, their relationships, and/or their education. With this as
background, you will develop a research question about ?how? college students can cope with or even overcome this
challenge. Your paper will present your perspective on the answers to your research question by analyzing how students
can deal with this challenge and perhaps ways that the college community can provide or improve support services.
Requirements
? Organization?: This paper should have four sections: Background, Argument, Analysis, and Conclusion.
? Target length:? 1000-1200 words (not including the References page)
[Suggested lengths: Background 250-300 words, Argument 100 words, Analysis 500-600 words, Conclusion 150-200
words]
? Format:? APA style requires papers that have one-inch margins, double spacing, ½-inch paragraph indents, and
12-point font. Please put your name, instructor’s name, course and section, date, and word count single-spaced in
the upper left corner. Then center your title. Also, ?be sure to include the four section headings?.
? Use of sources:? You must use 4-5 sources in this paper, ? including one-two (1-2) class readings (10.2 & 10.3) and
two-three (2-3) outside sources that you find. You are welcome to use a source from ?this list of sources ?as well (also
found in modules).
? Source citation:? Use APA style in-text citations and a References page.
Writing Process Steps
1. Do ?background reading? about stages of adulthood/maturation. This includes our Ch. 10.2 and 10.3 readings as well
as your own research.
2. Choose a topic? – a specific issue that is challenging for college students (young adults). Make sure that there are
enough credible sources about this topic in English. You may also use ?one? source in your native language.
3. Write a proposal including a research question? – a ?how-?type? ?question that will elicit the challenges and effects of
the issue you chose (see Chapter 16.2). Make sure your research question defines your topic clearly, identifying the
issue you chose and the specific people affected by it. Your professor should approve your research question.
4. Do more research to find sources? that 1) provide background information about the issue (What does it involve? 2)
Why/how young people struggle with the issue and how it can affect them. 3) What they can do to seek help and
cope with it and/or what can college communities do to support these students?)
5. Create a Reference list?.
6. Write a working thesis
7. Organize your research in a ?chart ?and write a? sentence outline of your Analysis section? as this is the crucial section
of the research paper (see 16.6-16.7).
8. Write Background and Argument? sections (Draft 1)? ?(see 16.4-16.5) for a peer review workshop.
9. Revise the Background and Argument and ?write the Analysis and Conclusion to complete a full draft with a
References page? (?Draft 2?) of your paper for a peer review workshop.
10. Revise again and bring ?Draft 3? to a? conference with your professor along with a Conference Preparation Form
(HW7)?. Besides office hours, this conference will be how you receive teacher feedback on Paper 3.
A note about drafts:
? Multiple Drafts:? You must submit two preliminary drafts of this paper in order to pass the course. Drafts are
required: points will be taken from the portfolio score if drafts are not on time and in the correct form (see
syllabus).
? Submission of Drafts: ?Type, revise, and edit ALL drafts in ?the same Google Doc? and submit them as indicated on
the
* Remember, you may come to office hours for help at any time during the writing process!
Course Learning Outcomes
? Plan and organize longer papers, use of effective discourse markers [transitions] to guide readers through sections of a
text
? Provide support for ideas from two or more outside sources
? Use APA citation style to incorporate class/outside readings
? Use search engines to obtain outside sources; appropriately distinguish academic and popular sources
? Build genre knowledge in at least one specific genre; recognize genre characteristics of common academic and
professional genres;
? Edit writing for effective, accurate, and stylistically appropriate word choice
The actual sections of your paper ?must? be labeled as follows. Note that the word length is a general
suggestion – ?do ?not ?include word count in your section headings?.
I.
BACKGROUND ?(about 250-300 words)
Introductions to research papers are slightly different from introductions in regular essays. The introduction should
provide the reader with all the background information needed to understand the ?general? topic, using information
you’ve learned from your sources. Here, you will describe the issue/topic, but ?not? ?your own specific research focus. (Be
sure to cite sources and quotes according to APA format. You should have several citations in this section since you are
presenting the conversation that has been taking place on the issue.)
II.
ARGUMENT ?(about 100 words)
Once you’ve provided the reader with the background information of the topic, you will briefly explain what you have
chosen to focus on and why. What were you curious to find out? This section should present your research question.
Finally, it should end with a ?brief? summary of your key findings and the argument you will make in your paper – this is
your thesis. (Not too many details in this section; save those for the body/analysis section below. You will ?not? have any
citations in this section. You will use the first-person pronoun ?I ?in this section.)
III.
ANALYSIS OF THE ISSUE ?(about 500-600 words)
Your paper must not only report evidence—facts about the issue—but it must weave together these facts so that they
form an argument that answers your research question. Good research papers provide evidence based on reliable
sources, are ordered and logical in the presentation of evidence, and reach a clear and focused conclusion that answers
the question posed at the beginning of the paper. In addition, good arguments also consider competing claims: What
other ideas have been put forward (or could be put forward) to counter your points? How would you respond to them?
In fact, consideration of counter-arguments is often a good way to begin this section of your paper. What have people
generally believed about the issue? What are the weaknesses in their beliefs? What evidence do you have to suggest an
alternative explanation? How does your position differ from popular beliefs?
Build each paragraph. Remember to follow the list of paragraph elements below to help you to be sure you have a fully
developed idea in each paragraph. These are arranged in a pattern/sequence: however, you may alter this sequence to
suit your content.
1. General statement of the topic for the paragraph (topic sentence)
2. Explanation of that statement
3. Evidence: examples, quotes, statistics/data, personal experiences/observations
4. Analysis: what that evidence means
(Steps 3 and 4 may repeat as you show connections between one source and another)
5. Synthesis: show the connections among ideas in the paragraph and with your thesis
IV.
CONCLUSION ?(about 150-200 words)
Synthesize?, don’t just summarize: Include a brief synthesis of the paper’s main points, but don’t simply repeat things that
were said in your paper. Instead, show your reader how the points you made and the support and examples you used fit
together. Emphasize what you found to be the ?most? significant findings in your research. Pull it all together.
Perhaps include a provocative insight, quotation from your research, or questions for further investigation. This can
redirect your reader’s thought process and help him/her to apply your information and ideas to his/her own life or to
see the ?broader implications? this issue could have.
Note that each section above could include more than one paragraph.
