Picking a topic for a research paper always seems to be difficult. The researcher always takes on a topic of interest without knowing if there will be enough information. While it is the first week of school, I have narrowed it down to two topics. I am very interested in writing and lately I have been very interested in the Holocaust after taking a class about it last fall. I sat and thought about two topics that would reflect these intrests and finally found an answer.
The first topic which I like is the effect academic writing has on creative writing. Recently, my academic career has revolved only around academic papers that involved no creative writing. When I had to take a creative writing class as a requirement, I struggled to create short stories with my imagination because like almost all of my classes there were no strict guidelines. I feel this topic strikes my interest so much because I have been a victim of it.
My second topic also strikes my interest a lot too. Throughout grammar school and high school (K-12) there seems to be a lack of Holocaust teaching within the curriculum. After experiencing an actual class on the Holocaust, I wish I would have known more information previously. The class was an eye opener to what I have never learned. It most definitely showed that in grammar school and high school students are only taught the bare minimum. This calls for a great research topic I think.
