Including a bibliography
With most research papers, teachers require a bibliography, or a list of sources used in the paper. Remember to put in any source you read, even if you did not actually cite it in your paper. Bibliographies have a specific format, and there are various Web sites that can help you figure out how to write one. EasyBib.com is a great resource where you type in the necessary information and it gives you the correct citation. A Research Guide for Students is also an easy-to-use site that describes how to write a bibliography, footnotes and more. Just remember that your paper needs to have enough "you" in it and it isn't just a summary of other people's research.
