Senior Project Research: Home

Your guide to conducting research for the senior project.

Assignment Overview

The Senior Project will be an INDUCTIVE process.  You will do SOME research as you have in the past for this project, but you will begin by creating a question (theorizing) and then researching and exploring the answers to that question.  Your research MUST BE UNBIASED, which means that you can’t have an idea of what you want to “argue” before you begin your research.  Unlike most of the writing you have done, you will not start with a thesisYou will start with a question that will lead you to discover the answer (your thesis) through research.

You will prepare and deliver a formal oral presentation that incorporates all the English course skills learned in the past four years.
