Writing a Research Paper was written to meet the need of advanced ESL students for a research paper guide. The book offers clarity of expression, simplicity of organization, and specific assignments for students to complete a full research paper. This text would suit English composition courses aimed at teaching the writing of research papers to ESL students. It could also be used as a supplementary text in any academic course in which the writing of a research paper is required.This guide puts the student unfamiliar with the conventions of the Englishlanguage research paper at ease by breaking the research and writing processes into a series of manageable activities accompanied by appropriate exercises. Novice writers of research papersas well as students who have gained familiarity with the process in another languagewill find this set of exercises and assignments useful in adapting their writing to the conventions of acceptable English.Other features that characterize this guide are the use of ESL peer models as an encouragement to ESL writers; the expression of crosscultural awareness in the exercises; discussion of cultural views of plagiarism; simplification of language without oversimplification of concepts; an extensive glossary; and a steady insistence on the idea that writing is openended and generative of ideas. The inclusion of these features and the use of a stepbystep approach are an attempt to transform the writing experience from a daunting, unpleasant task into a manageable and interesting learning and selfexpressive activity.
