ENG 111 - Writing and Inquiry: Welcome

Before you start searching for sources, you need a clearer idea of what you want to find. Here's how:

1. The table below is the TOPIC brainstorm. Under a column list words related to the category about your topic. Include relevant synonyms.
2. Circle ideas that work well together. Do this multiple times to create different research topic choices.
3. Choose one of the research topic choices to find sources for.
4. See an example.

Here is a worksheet you can print.
