Introduction: This introduction should be designed to interest your reader in your topic and
proposal and provide some historical/cultural context for your project. It should also
provide your personal association with the topic. What got you interested in exploring this
subject?• At the end of your introduction, include your research question to indicate to your
reader that you are entering your project looking at your topic through a critical, analytic
lens. Be sure your research question is easy to spot. If you have a tentative thesis, you may
include this as well.• Body paragraphs: In your body paragraphs, answer some of these
questions: What is my purpose for writing this research paper? What limitations might you
have over the course of your research? Have your ideas about this topic changed during this
early stage of research? Do you expect your ideas to continue to change or stay the same?
What sources have you looked at so far? Why do you believe these sources are reliable?
Have these sources helped you narrow your topic? Are there any pieces of research you are
having difficulty finding? How might you work around this? You may combine some of these
questions to form a single paragraph, but only if the questions have inherent similarities.•
Conclusion: In your conclusion, ask yourself “So what?” That is, why does what you are
investigating matter as more than an academic exercise? Why should your audience want to
read it? Why does it matter?• Include a working bibliography of sources you have consulted
in the research process so far.• This proposal should be between 2-3 pages and follow MLA
formatting guidelines.
