Finding a topic can be a difficult process. You want to find a topic that is not too narrow or too broad.
Suggestions for finding a topic:
- Use a database like Opposing Viewpoints that lists controversial topics.
- Use the reference sources to find an introductory article about a topic. The more you know about a topic the easier it will be to narrow.
- Do a Google search on a topic you are interested in and look at a few sites for ideas.
- Review your notes for topics discussed in class.
