UNDERSTANDING YOUR ASSIGNMENT

Understanding your assignment is the first step to a strong research paper.  Within your assignment on your syllabus you should look for information such as:

  • What is the paper supposed to be about?
  • When is it due?
  • How long should the final paper be?
  • How many resources should be used?
  • Are web pages allowed?
  • Should the paper be double spaced?

Remember these are just a few examples.  The Writing Center at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has a written guide to understanding your assignment and is easy to read.  Click on the link below to access that information
