What your research has unearthed that gives greater insight into the work you have chosen to write about.

Research Project Phase 2. Brainstorming ideas, bm B outline and three paragraphs

Using the instructions in the Research Paper Instructions and based on the topic you have chosen and submitted, brainstorm ideas and conduct research from our eLibrary.

Then, write a paragraph (3 in total) on each of the following. This will form the initial body of your paper.

1. Key aspects of the topic you have chosen

2. What others have said in support of the topic/work from your library research

3. What your research has unearthed that gives greater insight into the work you have chosen to write about.

Instructions

The primary aim of this project is the formal analysis of an artwork, e.g., a painting in a museum, or an architectural monument, e.g. The Washington Monument, as a research paper of between 800 and 900 words as the outcome.

The word count is a guideline but will definitely factor into the final assessment and grading of your project.
