Research is formalized curiosity.
It is poking and prying with a purpose. You need a variety of sources from books, scholarly journals, anthologies, academic reference works, and, possibly, the Internet. If you use an anthology for cross referencing articles, the articles are sources, but the anthology is not. Length does not include Works Cited and outline pages. The paper will receive a zero for any plagiarism, including leaving quotation marks off any direct quotations and omitting internal documentation for any borrowed material whether quotation or paraphrase.
