Multi-Genre Research Project Credit: Mary Kay Seales Senior English Language Fellow

What is a Multi-Genre Research Paper? •"A multi-genre paper arises from research, experience, and imagination. It is not an uninterrupted, expository monolog nor a seamless narrative nor a collection of poems. A multi-genre paper is composed of many genres and subgenres, each piece self-contained, making a point of its own, yet connected by theme or topic and sometimes by language, images, and content. In addition to many genres, a multi-genre paper may also contain many voices, not just the author's. The trick is to make such a paper hang together.” (Romano, Blending Genre, Altering Style)
