Guidelines for writing a term paper

A term paper is an innovative course specific long duration activity to be completed by students as a minor project. The students are required to gather; assimilate and analyze the data for a problem allotted by the instructor. A term paper is a task assigned to the student in the 3rd week of the term, the submission of which is due at least two weeks before the last day of classes Primarily Term Paper is a record of intelligent, careful and systematic reading, noting and presentation of several sources on a particular subject under study. The procedure for writing such a Term Paper consists of the following steps: 1. Finding sources of materials: The information related to the topic can be collected from various primary and secondary sources depending upon the nature of the topic. For the secondary sources one can visit library, search books, various websites. Then start writing the material related with the topic of your term paper. One can make reference cards of these by placing these cards according to the topic. The references should be written in following format. 1) Article in a journal Verma, R., Dogra, B. and Khara, N. (2007), Dainik Bhaskar-The Punjab Launch, Indian Journal of Marketing, Vol. XIV, No.2, pp. 21-34. 2) From book Gautam Prashant (2007), Sustainable Tourism Development, Indus Publication: New Delhi, pp. 31-40. 3) From Web Population of India. [Online] available at [http://www.indianchild.com/population_of_india.htm> accessed on 24.09.2008] 2. Gathering notes: Skim through the sources collected, locating the useful material, then make good notes of it, including quotes and information for footnotes so that you dont have to refer the sources again. One should take care in note-taking. The notes must be taken accurately so that it does not distort the author's meanings. One should collect only those things that will support the objective of your term paper, ignoring other facts or opinions. 3. Discussion with the instructor: Before going with the detailed writing one must discuss the topic along with the material collected with the teacher, to ensure that one is going on a right track. 23 4. Outlining the paper The purpose of an outline is to help student think through the topic carefully and organize it logically before writing. Check the outline to make sure that the points covered flow logically from one to the other. 5. Writing the first draft Start writing now, write as per the outline. Include an INTRODUCTION, a BODY, and a CONCLUSION. INTRODUCTION (Tell what you are going to say) - State the thesis and the purpose of the term paper clearly. State the basic purpose of writing the paper along with the steps of approaching the topic. Explain briefly the major points to be covered in the paper. BODY (Say it) - This is where one presents the arguments to support the thesis CONCLUSION (Tell in the end what you've said) Here one has to summarize the arguments. One should explain the reasons to support the particular conclusion. 6. Editing the paper The first draft is ready at this stage so A. Read it thoroughly, to be sure that the language is proper, and that the content flow is appropriate. B. Cross check spelling and grammatical errors. C. Cross check References, footnotes, and punctuation. D. Make sure that the tables and graphs are in proper form and are self explanatory.
