Write a 6–8-page research paper about a topic in world history up to 1500. Using your textbook, start with a broad topic idea to identify a chapter you like, then choose a section of the chapter that really interests you, then narrow your research to a specific event, person, or moment within that section of the chapter.
Support your research with a total of ten (10) sources: Five (5) primary source, three (3) books from the Taft College library, print or electronic; and two (2) academic, peer-reviewed journal articles from a library database.
The information on the following tabs of this guide will help you identify keywords for your topic, find and evaluate different types of sources, and cite your sources.
