The International Student’s Guide to Writing a Research Paper is
a reference text for undergraduate students and those in ESL or
bridge courses who are writing a research paper for the first time.
This book is partly an update of Writing a Research Paper (by
Lionel Menasche, 1998) and partly a companion to The ESL Writer’s
Handbook. Â Each section of the book includes a discrete task
called a Building Block, which requires students to apply the
skills learned toward the development of their own paper. This
step-by-step approach allows students to construct knowledge as
they become more familiar with the process, making writing a
research paper a less intimidating task. Â Special features:
This guide uses simple direct language for those for whom writing a
research paper is new. Most example writing is from international
students in an ESL program or first-year writing class, including
two sample papers—one in APA and one in MLA. A section on
responding to instructor feedback to provide students with the
tools to read and understand comments and use them to improve the
first draft. A subsection dedicated to constructing clear and
cohesive paragraphs and sentences. The guide includes citation and
style examples in MLA 8th edition.Â
