WRITING TUTOR STORY: The other day, I was working with a student at my university's writing lab. She had been assigned a research paper, and had some questions about how to organize her citations. She was overjoyed when I explained that a research paper is more than just a collection of research; you use the research to support the claims you are making.
"You mean I don't have to have a citation for my conclusion? My conclusion should be the result of research, not just the research itself?"
Yes.
