3.Choosing a topic

Before you can even think about writing your research essay, you're going to have to do a lot of reading. Therefore you should choose a topic that interests you. Take some time over this, and choose carefully.

It can sometimes be difficult to decide what you want to research. Try thinking about questions such as:
What subject did you like best at high school?
What do you study in university, and why?
What websites do you visit most often?

Trying to answer questions about a topic you're interested in can also help focus your thoughts.  If you have no idea for a topic to research, you might find it useful to glance through the Idea Generator (link on the right), particularly Arts & Humanities or Social Sciences, to get you started on something.
