This guide will assist you on your research assignment. Visit www.evc.edu/library to get started with your research. The tabs above will guide you to various resources.

Your assignment is to write a research paper on marine plastic or colonizing mars. 

Keep in mind that a research paper is similar to writing a regular essay.  In the research paper, you will be required to present in writing:

• An introduction with a strong thesis (a brief summary of your topic may be essential so that your reader will have an understanding of your chosen topic)
• A body paragraph(s) that demonstrate a topic with supporting details and analysis of that topic
• A conclusion with final thoughts

The main difference between a research paper and a regular essay is that students are required to gather their own resources.
