Any ideas?

BACK IN ACTION.....and better than ever!

What subject is this?

---

It's a research and writing course. There's no outline or anything as to what area the topics should be in, it's completley random.

BACK IN ACTION.....and better than ever!

So it has to be something you can research a lot?

The development of something might be good (an invention, a cure for something).

Something historical (causes of some event, legacy of some event, what happened in some event).

Something in which you can discuss the impact of something on society at great length (think drink/drugs/sex).

One of those random things that's just interesting: something like something about lying, or trends in gender, or handwriting analysis.

There you go! Methods of teaching handwriting to kids and then you could always bring in handwriting analysis. Alternatively, something about schooling methods/best ways of teaching something (language, music...).

I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin, and fǜck with the stars.
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars.

I would personally write about the Salem Witch Hunts/Trials. There's a LOT to write on.
You could even compare it to the communism scare like Arthur Miller did. It's fascinating and you can use him as a reference.
Or even the book 'The Witch's Hammer'.
(can you tell I love the topic?)

Orrrr you could do something on the enviornment and effects of human; eco-logical footprint.

Or the large trend in dieting/exercising.... media presence.

Just pick stuff you LIKE so that you can be interested in talking about it for that long.

Compare/contrast type of subjects are always good for longer papers.  A couple pages of side one, a couple pages of side two, another couple breaking down and comparing the specific points, another couple to draw conclusions, then another couple reiterating the points.
