Purpose • To use key words and headings to test the idea organization and cohesiveness of your paper. To discover possible revision questions and problems to solve over the weekend. Requirements

1. After doing the Craft of Research reading, creating headings for each section of your draft. Your headings should each indicate the question that is answered by that section of your paper. This may not be obvious to you at first. You may need to start by first identifying the single, main idea that each section of the paper establishes. Then, ask yourself, if that idea is the "answer," then what is the question it's answering. [Yes, you're playing Jeopardy.] If you find that this is hard to do because there's so much going on in a section of your paper, this is something to identify as a revision problem that you need to solve. Do you have more than one main idea in this section? Did you go off track with a tangent? Do you spend too much time data-dumping source information, but it's really not clear what this section of the paper says? 2. After you write your headings, post the following here, in this order. • Title Introduction Each heading, in the order they would appear in your paper. Each must be a complete question, not a short phrase or topic. If you just post phrases, this assignment will marked Incomplete. • Conclusion/n THIR D EDITΙΟΝ THE Craft Research WAYNE C.
