Please help.

I just started college classes last month. Yesterday, my English teacher just assigned a ten page research thesis paper that it due November 18th. I know I should be able to do this on my own but I was hoping for some ideas for my thesis. I’ve never written a thesis before or done a research paper and could use the help.

Do you have a subject/title to start with ? Or do you have to choose a subject yourself ?

In either case this is what you have to do:

1. List a few things that need to be researched upon (perhaps something different from which other students have researched in the past).
2. Start your research using internet or the library and see which subject is the most approachable.
3. Start to collect things in a bundle: internet sites, pdf files, photocopies, photographs, questions you ask to your teacher or perhaps to other people who know about your subject.
4. When you are ready from step 3, arrange your bundle in a logical order.
5. Start typing your report- always remember to use your own words and make the presentation attractive. Do references to which books you used, which internet sites you visited and which people helped you or whom did you interview: like this you will show what you did.

10 pages are not so hard to write. You’ll do it dont worry. Good luck.

alright, thanks everybody. uhm there isnt a specific topic or anything it has to be about. it cant be about gun control, legalization of marijuana, abortion, gay marriage, or the death penalty. It has to have an argument. So I have to make a thesis statement that someone could argue with and disagree. The thesis is actually due on tuesday (28th)
