1. You need to decide on a topic (you can find a topic from previous studies conducted on a specific area within your field) 2. Open your term paper with Introduction (it usually consists of a brief overview of what you're gonna discuss on your term paper & how you're gonna do that) 3. Next, you need to revise a literature on the topic 4. Data analysis is usually required. However, you don't necessarily have to collect the data yourself. You can give due credit to other researchers & use their data on your term paper to demonstrate your point. 6. Provide a conclusion/Summary at the end of the paper. Good luck!
