Help! I hath to write an research paper on the Shack. How do I start?
1. What is the Shack? a book? theshackbook.com ?
2. Please explain what you want. To start, what do you need to do? Any requirements?
Also to start, read material on the issue/book to get an idea, then come back for more help
Cheers~
Is that THE SHACK, by WM. Paul Young?!?!
I'm guessing your report has to explain the message of the story. Read the back cover: "THE SHACK wrestles with the timeless question: Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" If that's the case, there is the main idea of your report.
You need to explain your instructions before we can help you any more.
Good luck : )
God idea! I was guessing you meant "Shaq" as in Shaquille O'Neal
But no matter what you are writing about, start by reading an article. read an article about the topic, and enjoy it. When you are done, write a sentence about it, and then give an example or two. Write a complete paragraph about the article and put the author's name in parenthesis (Hacker).
It's easy! Repeat that process until you have lots of paragraphs, and then google this:
how to write a good thesis statement.
One thing that always helped me with research papers was to compile all relevant information before writing. Perhaps make some note cards (with the source embedded) that have information pertaining to the topic you are writing on. Then you can order them in a way congruent to your paper format, so that it's easy to embed quotes and facts within the argument.
First you need to have an idea of what you are about to write, the meaning of shack, what it does , the types and so on and also write your thesis statement and show it to tour teacher to assist you on where you went wrong.You have to have some ideas about your topic that is the only way you will know how to write/start your research paper.
