Your roommate is having trouble with a research paper that is due in a few days. She tells you that she just needs to read one more source before she can begin writing. Based on what you have learned from your textbook in this class, you know there will always be one more source to read. To help your roommate, you suggest that she should

expect the first draft to be messy

use concept maps, table, index cards, sticky notes, or sketches

be willing to revise as further evidence is considered

ask for sample papers and model their use of sources
