Research Paper Outline Part 2
In this worksheet, you will do research to find source material for your research paper, and work through that material to collect and synthesize the information you can use in your paper.
Research and find five potential sources for your upcoming research paper. Below, type the References page source entries for each one in APA format. Then, underneath each source, write the main idea of each source and two direct quotes from the article you might use in your paper. Remember to place quotation marks around the direct quotes to indicate they are taken word-for-word from the article, and to include the page number (p. 10).
For APA citations, you will need:
• The author’s full name
• The year the article was published
• The title of the article
• The words Retrieved from
• The URL for the website
Here is an example of the way an APA formatted source entry on your References page will look:
Smith, A. (2016). Vaccinations are safe. Retrieved from https://www.vaccinationsaresafe.com/.

SYNTHESIS: Answer the questions and/or follow the instructions below to synthesize your sources.
1. Do your sources support your position on the topic? What issues and debates came up when you were researching this topic? Has your position changed based on your research?
2. Select three of the direct quotes from above to blend with your position on the topic. Use direct quotation, paraphrasing, and summary as appropriate. In paragraph form, create a new “whole” that clearly conveys your position on the topic and supports it with your sources. Be sure to include proper in-text citations.
CONCLUSION: The conclusion paragraph summarizes what the paper was about by restating some of the main points. Do not introduce new information in the conclusion paragraph. The conclusion simply wraps things up.
In the space below, draft a brief conclusion for your research paper.
