Formulate a research plan that includes:

Statement of purpose (what you hope to show/discover)

What I hope to the discover is the difference controversy whether voice is original or not

Detailed statement of your research question

Is voice original? State what researchers believe and how does it affect them. State what students believe and how does it affect them. Do you have a voice or is it just pieces taken by different individuals

List of the information you need to gather

I need to gather the history of where do researchers believe come from. Do students believe they have a voice, if so how is it expressed thru text or voice?

A preliminary list of sources

Writing about writing textbook (article on intertextuality), Peter Elbow, Melanie Sperling?

Plan for gathering your information that includes:

·         Who/what you will be studying (for example:. students in a College Composition class, how they think about the comments teachers write on their papers)

What do students think about originality and how does it affect them. Does it affect them in a negative or positive way?

·         Where you will collect your information (for example:. in interviews at Kean University)

I will be collecting my information for the Kean College students

·         How many subjects you will study (for example:. 3)

The number of studies I will study is about 5

·         What methods you will use to conduct your study (for example:. interviews, textual analysis, discourse analysis)

I will briefly incorporate my information in interviews, intertextuality, and discourse analysis
