Now that most of you (15 in period two, 14 in period five) have completed your rough draft of the research paper, you should be pretty knowledgeable about your topic. Now you can add the piece that will make your research paper unique: you will interview an expert.
When we return on Nov. 29, your assignment will be to write 10 questions that you could ask an expert. Look at your rough draft and see where any information seems missing. You may not end up using the answers to all 10 questions, but it will give you quotations to choose from.
If you want to get a head start, begin writing questions and take a look at the expert links on the right. Look for someone who fits the description of your topic. These are the types of experts I'm looking for, not friends, family, or (generally) teachers at school.
