Research and Writing Skills Success will help you improve your research skills in just 20 short lessons of 20 minutes a day through basic research and writing tools that you can practice at home. Carefully designed to make researching any topic and writing a research paper manageable and easy, every lesson teaches different skills that will help you to put together a research paper from start to finish in just a few short weeks. The lessons in this book are designed to take you through the initial phases of writing a research paper such as finding a topic, locating your sources, evaluating them, framing your thesis question, and writing your paper.
