• mastering style guides like Chicago, APA, and MLA
• what it takes to earn a higher grade
• and much, much more!

Best of all, the strategies you’ll learn will apply to any research paper assignment — in high school, college, graduate school, and beyond — in English… history… psychology… sociology… education… political science… economics… business… science… the arts… you name it!

Now students can transcend those disorganized jumbles of rehashed quotes and unfocused writing: they can learn to form a thesis, develop logical arguments, analyze and cite sources, and
actually write a great research paper!

NOTE: The 10 DVDs in this series make ideal self-study aids (perfect for circulation by school, college, and public libraries and writing centers). They’re also the ultimate resources for educators (teachers, professors, administrators, etc.) who wish to further their own professional development, provide in-service training for their staff memebers, improve their command of modern research techniques, or supplement and enhance their classroom lessons.
