  14. Title = Topic + Narrowed Focus The title is the first impression of your research paper. Make a good first impression.

  15. Guidelines A straightforward title is better than one that is cute or too clever. The title should not leave your reader wondering “What’s that about?” Example: Escaping with the Wizard of Oz OR Ballooning as a Sport: Advantages and Disadvantages

  16. Guidelines A colon is helpful. You might write the topic first, followed by a colon, followed by your limited focus. Example: Credit Card Problems OR Using Credit Cards: How to Keep from Going Under

  17. Guidelines The title should be stated as a complete sentence, although it might suggest a question. Example: Feeding the Diet Industry OR The Diet Industry in America: Big Bucks

  18. Do these titles work? Going Green: Sustainable Solutions for Schools The ‘Tooth’ about the Dentist Early Childhood Education Breaking the Poverty Cycle with a Head Start Environmental Club

  19. Practice • Take your topic and create a title. • Pass the paper to the next student so they can add another title. • Continue until you have a title for your topic from every student.
