Basic Steps In Selecting Term Paper Topics For High School Students


In fact the selection of the topic is one of the first steps in completing an essay and when students struggle, they find that they are unable to proceed with your writing. High school students especially who are assigned term papers may be unsure of where to start looking for potential topics.

  • When picking a term paper topic for high school students, you should review your course notes, your lectures, your textbooks. Search for headings, subheadings, and anything that you found to be particularly interesting but never learned more about. This might be the exact topic that you write about for your term paper.
  • You can also take an idea or topic that you wrote about previously for another assignment or another course, and rework it to fit your term paper. You may have written about the linguistic development of a particular African region during a particular time period for your mid term, and now you can take that same idea and expound upon it for your next term paper. There is no harm in doing this, and it can help you out a great deal because you already have the bulk of your research done, your sources available, and the perfect body for your essay.

If you are writing a paper, it may be in your best interest to take some time before picking your topic. Start on your essay as soon as it is assigned by reviewing potential topics. Having time to review, brainstorm, and evaluate your topics will give you time to write a great written paper. Start by brainstorming the ideas you like to argue and the things that you are most passionate about. Once you have a list you should:

  1. You should pick a handful of topic ideas. Never limit yourself to just one idea. If you only have one topic in mind and you are hell bent on ensuring that is your topic, you may find yourself more prone to bending the research you find to fit your topic, or falling in love with the topic and not wanting to give it up when you find that there is not enough information available to support it.
  2. Make sure you research each potential topic to make sure that it fits within the parameters of your project and will be adequate to fill your page requirements.
