HOW TO WRITE A RESEARCH PAPER
UNI123
RESEARCH PAPER –Take Home Assignment
Word Limit: 850 to 1000 words
Assigned Date: 1-5 December
DEADLINE FOR RESEARCH PAPER OUTLINE: 12 December Friday %10
Due Date: 31 December, Friday by 17.00. %35
Requirement of the Task:
Doing research and finding two different academic sources related to your essay topic (electronic sources, books, articles etc.)
Minimum three citations in your research paper from different sources. (! Do not cite three times from the same source (only one source).
BEFORE WRITING YOUR RESEARCH PAPER:
· Choose your research topic and start your research to find two differentacademic sources. (a book, an article/ two articles)
· Make sure you evaluate the websites critically if you are doing research on the net.
· Make sure you review the sample research paper outline and research paper input handout.
· Photocopy the relevant pages of your sources and submit them to your lecturer attached to your hard copy. !
· Please meet the deadline. (Late assignments without a valid excuse: %25 deduction from total grade.)
· Submit your paper in word document format, double space, Calibri font 11.
A research paper is an academic paper in which you use the ideas of experts to support your point of view (thesis) about a topic. These kinds of papers are written following a universally accepted format such as the APA style and MLA style.
CHARACTERISTICS OF A RESEARCH PAPER:
· In a research paper, you read the relevant expert sources and then make an evaluation of what you have learned from them. Your research findings, your opinion based on what you have learned from various sources and your original ideas about your topic comprise a good research paper.
· A research paper shows your creativity. However, this doesn’t mean that a research paper is a long personal opinion essay. Your own opinion only, not supported by sources, will not make a reliable research paper. Likewise using only experts’ ideas without evaluating them, adding your own interpretation and judgment will not make an original research paper; it will be a report paper without your own thoughts.
· In a research paper you evaluate and interpret what you have learned about your topic from your sources. Your unique interpretation and the conclusions you have drawn from your research findings will make your original research paper.
· A summary of a single source cannot make a good research paper; you must use variety of sources, evaluating each source. Similarly, a list of nothing but direct quotations cannot make a research paper. That will look like a ‘cut and paste’ work, nothing original.
· In a research paper all sources must be cited. You can use paraphrase, summary and direct quotation (if necessary) techniques to cite from the sources. Using sources without making proper citations is NOT RESEARCH; it is PLAGIARISM= STEALING

Researching Your Speech
What Is Research?
Libraries and Librarians are Our FriendsLibrarians have many tricks and shortcuts up their sleeves to make hunting for information easier and faster.Interacting with librarians and using libraries effectively is the first step to good research.
17 Strategies to Work
With LibrariansA research librarian is extremely knowledgeable about information sources.You can learn from a librarian and increase your own research skills.When on reference desk duty, the librarian is available to help; present yourself in person.A librarian can teach you, but can’t make excuses for late work.If a librarian is already helping someone else, wait your turn.
Strategies cont.When a librarian helps you find sources, have the courtesy to look at them.Research is a process, not an event; allow sufficient time.The librarian can’t do the work you’re supposed to be doing toward your own grade.Reference librarians are professional, highly educated information specialists; ask your “stupid” question.Good research takes time, and interacting with the librarian takes time.
Strategies cont.Students should expect reasonable questions from the librarian, such as: “Where have you looked so far?” “Have you been to a library workshop before?”Students should approach a librarian sooner rather than later.If you don’t have a well-defined topic to research, bring a copy of the assignment to show the librarian.
Strategies cont.Most academic librarians will give in-depth consultations to students by appointment.Students should be as specific as possible in what they ask for.Many research questions do not have ready-made or one-stop answers.Information comes in varying formats.
Research is Fun and UsefulYou get to ask questions and actually find answers.Research can open a world you never knew existed.Research can lead you to new ideas and activities.A scholarly investigation into a topic in order to discover, revise, and/or report facts, theories, and applications.
Three Functions of ResearchDiscovering occurs when people conduct some kind of study and find something completely new.Revision occurs when people revise existing facts, theories, and applications.Reporting happens after you accumulate information about a topic and report it to others.
Three End Results of ResearchA fact is a truth that is arrived at through the scientific process.A theory is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon.Researchers often look for new applications for something that already exists.
Primary ResearchResearch that is carried out to discover or revise facts, theories and applications, and is reported by the person conducting the research; it is active and creates new knowledge.
Types of Primary Research
Surveys or QuestionnairesSurveys or questionnaires you conduct are a type of primary research in which you collect facts, figures, or opinions. For a survey, you should ask four questions:Do you know what you want to ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
