SENIOR RESEARCH PROJECT TOPICS

Although we won't start the actual research for quite a while, the first step is to obviously read the novel.  We will assign novels in class through a lottery system.  I encourage all of you to research five books in case you don't get your first few choices.  This process is much easier if you take the time to find a book that you are interested in.

Putting it All Together

Picture

Now that we have written several papers, and read several novels.  It is now time to begin the major research project.  This project will involve research, analysis, outlining, and ultimately presenting to the class.  This is not a major paper, but it will require all the build up and work of a paper.  Take a look at the materials and steps below to writing a great research paper.

This unit will focus on literary analysis of different works.
