GUIDE TO RESEARCH PAPER FOR WORLD REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY
002M
Papers should follow the traditional arrangement of introduction, body, and conclusion.
The introduction will announce your topic and the point you are trying to make. The
body of the paper will present your data and evidence for that point, and elaborate the
argument; it may be divided into separate sections. The conclusion will sum up the
paper and once again remind the reader of the point you have made.
A final consideration is the use of references. Where have you found all of the
information you¥ used in writing your paper. References (or citations) are all of those
sources that are mentioned somewhere in your paper. A bibliography, on the other
hand, is a list of all sources consulted, even though you may not mention them in the
text of your paper.
Maps and illustrations are often useful in making a point in a paper, as are things like
tables and graphs if you have a lot of statistical data. The use of these will depend on the
topic of your paper. Be sure to give the source of any maps, tables, or graphs that you
use.
The student must show the ability of doing independent research; only relevant material
must be included; the statements made must be accurate, as well as the presentation of
data and analysis; the information must be presented in a logical order; the work needs
to be coherent and complete; the references must be complete and accurate. Cite your
sources using footnotes or endnotes, in giving credit for facts stated in the research
paper and the bibliography should have minimum three references. The project should
be 6-8 pages. References need to contain minimum 4-5 sources about your topic. The
project should contain at least one map.
