Don’t save references for last.

Many students save references for last. When working as a writing tutor I noticed that the same students would appear repeatedly with the same problem, a mass of notes and highlights with a list of references and a desperate need to help assembling a proper bibliography and related citations.

How do I make my paper longer!

I’ve seen more than a few students say that they have written everything possible on a given subject in only 600 or 2000 words and that it is impossible to add the two more pages that the assignment requires.

Research Papers

Research papers are all about original research so remembering that is key to creating killer content that profs will love. Many students struggle with the question of how to create original research from data that has already been researched and reviewed. It is a good question. The trick is to remember that by researching as comprehensively as possible one will naturally find unanswered questions or unexplored areas in a field of relevance to your research paper. These unanswered or unexplored questions are the gold nuggets of research. They are the areas in which the student can dig deeply to find information, statistics or case studies that show the research paper topic in a new or interesting light before unknown or unnoticed.

Writing a Research Paper

When you begin to write your paper don’t worry about flow, spelling or grammar. These can be corrected later and it is much easier to develop an idea and steady thought process if you are not stopping to worry about these details. Just begin typing and let your mind go, jotting down everything you can think of regarding the subject, the content, arguments and counter arguments.

Broadband and Mobile Communications

Every student needs broadband and mobile. There is just no getting around it. Research would be unbelievably onerous without the ability to surf for information or access library materials online. Despite the necessity of mobile communications and high speed internet scholarships, subsidies and grants do not generally take into account these essential expenses so it is pretty important to shop around for the best deal.
