Organize your workspace and minimize distractions so that you are able to concentrate fully on your task. Plan your schedule for writing the paper by assigning time to specific tasks. Amy KL Borrell, the student activities editor for Scholastic.com, recommends that 35 percent of time should be spent brainstorming, researching and taking notes, 20 percent for making a plan, 25 percent for writing and 15 percent should be assigned for polishing the report.
Write down your initial thoughts on the subject of sexual unfaithfulness in a brainstorming session. Conduct a preliminary Internet search on sexual unfaithfulness and note any significant information, such as it is often referred to as infidelity, that will assist you and enhance your paper. When writing academic papers, be sure to use the correct terminology rather than street language for references to any sexual matters.
Focus on credible research regarding relationship and sexual unfaithfulness matters that can enhance your paper. Prioritize research published by government and educational institutions as these are viewed as authoritative. Research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, for example, regarding sexual behavior is considered credible. Avoid personal websites as these are not generally given recognition in academia. Statistics and references should be recorded as these lend gravitas to your paper.
Develop preliminary ideas based on the results of your research. College Board suggests asking yourself what is the evidence and how can this evidence be interpreted. Mind mapping and taking notes can help you develop these ideas.
Map an outline and include what information you will use in each section. An introduction should broadly set out the theme of the paper and immediately clarify any ambiguities. It would be beneficial to provide clarity for instance on the definition of sexual unfaithfulness being researched. According to College Board, the body of the paper should be built upon step by step so that the paper flows naturally and the debate appears logical and thorough. The conclusion should be a succinct summary of the report.
Write a first draft of the report. Remember to save work regularly if you are using the computer. Read through your draft and make any alterations necessary to improve your paper. Ask someone else to review the paper and offer advice on improvement. Make any further adjustments required and submit your paper.
