How to Write Term Papers

Students usually dread term papers, but a few basic steps can make the difference between a ho-hum, poorly organized paper and one that wins praise — or at least a passing grade — from your instructor.

I will be sharing some steps regarding writing of term papers and by following them you will be able to produce good term papers.

The first step is to draft a clear, concise statement of intent — a summary sentence of what you intend to prove, based on facts derived from your source materials. Every reference, every quote you use, every sentence your write, will build the case to convince your reader of this central premise or opinion. (Make sure you choose something that you have some evidence to back up!) For example, the intent of this article can be stated as: “There are a few basic steps that can improve a student’s term paper.”

The second step is to make a brief outline. An outline is only a tool — don’t obsess over its format, just jot it down to organize your thoughts. The outline for this article, for example, might look as simple as a list of the major steps to writing a “killer” term paper, with a couple of additional points jotted beneath each step to flesh it out. Generally, each major point of your outline will correspond to (usually) one paragraph of your paper, assuming each paragraph to consist of at least three sentences, and no more than about five or six. Gathering and organizing your evidence — also known as “research” — is the third step. Most professors like to see a lot of good quotes strung together; stating your intent with more authority than you could say it yourself. The goal is to make your sources do the talking, wherever possible, to build your argument.

No matter what subject you are writing about — whether science, business, politics, history, psychology, anything — you should be able to find relevant quotations from experts in that field. Using a selection of books, magazine articles, research papers, even television transcripts, you can find passages that build your case piece by piece. Once you determine the logical order they go in according to your outline, you are ready to compose your paper.
