"So what the heck is a term paper, anyway?"1
"A term paper is written assignment that asks students to apply ideas, theories, concepts, or principles learned or studied in class to a new situation."2
"It might be a short one of about four pages (a unit paper) or a longer one of up to twelve to fifteen pages or more (a term paper)."3
"The first step to a really good term paper is to narrow the topic down sufficiently so that it can be focused in upon with greater ease and accuracy."4
"A term paper is not a recital of information."5
"It would take thought and imagination and time, which means it's a good question for a term paper."6
"You must have a thesis statement at the outset of your paper to tell your reader what the paper is about, hint at the question you're going to answer in your term paper, your answer, and the reasons you think your answer is the best one."7
"The commonest deficiency of previous term papers I've seen was their lack of analysis of issues, failure to expose connections and relations or to dig into historical background."8
"To pass certain courses, you must write a term paper, which demonstrates that you can connect information and report it in your own words."9
"I grade term papers on how well they do the following four things: Define a clear topic and stick to it throughout the paper, addressing a consistently defined audience."10
