Research Paper Help--The Owl and dianahacker.com

The University of Purdue Online Writing Lab, also known as the Owl, is one of the best college on line sites of its type in the country.

Here is a link to the site, which offers, among MANY other things, a detailed and step-by-step approach to the entire research paper process. Once there, the links in the upper left hand corner will be most useful. Click on the link for grades 7-12 instructors and students (there's plenty of good stuff here) Then scroll down to Different Kinds of Essay Genres and click on writing a research paper.

OK, if you're ONLY interested in research paper help, just click on the final link. But it might be useful and interesting to familiarize yourself with the entire site, if not for this assignment, but for later in your education (like college) where you'll be asked to write many papers.
