You do not need to summarize the major points of the source material in your article. Instead, you will focus on how to use the material in your research paper. Specifically, you will explain how you can use the material you have researched to support your thesis statement. Your article should be structured in the following way:

Introduction (1 paragraph): You should introduce your subject and point out the importance of the topic.

Body (the main part of your article) (2 paragraphs): You should provide an extended discussion of one particular aspect of the subject. In the body section of your article, you will also include a brief description of the source material you will discuss in your article. This description should include a sentence or two that states the importance of the source material to your research paper. You will then use this material to support your thesis statement. For example, let’s say that you are writing a paper about how events in a historical novel influenced a historical figure’s role in a particular event. You have chosen Edmund Burke’s Reflections on the Revolution in France, which explores how the French Revolution threatened British political stability. In your article, you might choose to discuss how Burke used his knowledge of ancient Rome—a society that, like Britain, had been threatened by a series of bloody revolutions—to draw parallels between that ancient society and his own. You would then use this information to support your thesis that Burke was able to use his understanding of ancient Rome in his efforts to protect England from a similar fate. In addition to a description of the source material in your body section, you may also want to briefly mention sources you did not use for this particular section of your article. This practice allows you to make clear why certain sources were relevant but not others, thus highlighting your understanding of the sources you did use and demonstrating your ability to evaluate different kinds of source materials. You may also want to make some introductory remarks about how these sources relate to each other and especially how they relate to your thesis statement. Finally, you should try to end this section with a brief summary of your main point and at least one specific example of how it is supported by the sources you discussed. You can also end with a sentence or two that succinctly summarizes what you want readers to take away from your article. This section must be at least 200 words in length.

Conclusion (1 paragraph): In the last paragraph of your article, you should restate your thesis and add any thoughts on how it relates to both primary and secondary sources you have discussed. See the conclusion sample below for an example of how this can be done. This section must be at least 50 words in length.


Sample conclusion: Burke draws on his knowledge of Roman history and literature to argue that England should not follow in Rome’s footsteps and try to change its government too drastically or too hastily. The Roman republic ultimately collapsed under its own weight because it failed to accommodate changing social conditions brought about by wars, which made it impossible for Romans to defend their freedom without limiting it. Burke was concerned that England was headed down a similar path because it had fought revolutionary wars against France and Spain that had dramatically increased its territory and population without creating a corresponding increase in political stability or economic prosperity. By drawing on his knowledge of Roman history, Burke was able to show his readers why they should fear radical changes to their government and to issue them a warning so they could take preemptive action before it was too late.
