so my professor is having us do the whole thing with bibliography cards and note cards, in paper citing and multiple sources. I'm confused because he's very vague. Now is a research paper supposed to just be entirely of things taken out of your sources with the source cited after each paragraph? example (hawthorne 83)
Is a research paper supposed to be entirely of things taken directly from your sources?
no, that is what MY teacher calls an "information dump." that is bad. It would be very boring to read, and would be very choppy. Mostly, when you write your paper, insert your quote/paraphrase/summery/etc, and then explain it after. your sources should only help firm your argument. I feel your pain though, my research paper is due tomorrow!
