*Note: Opposing Viewpoints is a great place to find multiple sources for an argument you’re interested in
2) From the LSC-Tomball Library database, find three argumentative articles to further support your argument in AE 1
Note: If you need help with research you may also call the librarians, who are extremely friendly and helpful (832.559.4211).
Note: If you cannot find 3 sources in the LSC-Tomball Library database, you may also use the search engine Google Scholar (not regular Google), but as many of the three sources as possible should be from the LSC-Tomball Library database, and a minimum of one should be from the LSC-Tomball Library database.
3) Add the sources to your AE1 to create your rough draft for RE1 (Research Essay 1).
