  • check first with your instructor if you would like to make use of collaboration, tutoring, or editorial help from others
  • make use of on-campus academic support services – Libraries, the Writing Centre, or Learning Skills Services
  • keep a research log, notes on your readings, and drafts of your written work, to document your research process
