INSTRUCTIONS

1. What specific resource (diary or diaries, collection of letters, oral history or oral histories, etc.) are you going to be examining in-depth and what questions do you have about it? What do you expect to find?
2. A working thesis This does not have to be in a single sentence, but could be a paragraph or two of written explanation as to what your approach is going to be, and what you anticipate you will discover. A good researcher will turn this early working thesis into a more specific and sharper thesis in their final paper.
3. A rough outline. How are you going to organize your paper Links to an external site.? This should consist of at least five different sections, with the Introduction and Conclusion being the first and fifth (or later.).
