What is the Structure for a 5 Paragraph/Section Expository Essay or Research Paper? Purdue Online Writing Lab

Opening Paragraph of Technology Research Paper Paragraph 1: Opening Hook Thesis Statement o Piece of Body Section 1 Topic Sentence o Piece of Body Section 2 Topic Sentence o Piece of Body Section 3 Topic Sentence Technology Introduction

Your First Sentence Hook To get your paper off to a great start, you should have a first sentence that engages your reader. Think of your first sentence as a hook that draws your reader in. It is your big chance to be clever so that your reader can’t stop reading. As you research your technology, you will probably discover many: 1.) Interesting (or shocking) fact(s), or 2.) Fascinating quote from an expert (or famous) person. This is exactly the sort of thing you should use for an engaging introduction for a technology research paper!

Consider these ideas for a Strong Hook… Surprising (or shocking) fact: California currently has the largest solar power plant in the world! Covering 1000 acres are nine solar thermal plants in the Mojave Desert. Fascinating quotes from an expert (or famous) person: Barack Obama once said “There is an urgent need to stop subsidizing the fossil fuel industry, dramatically reduce wasted energy, and significantly shift our power supplies from oil, coal, and natural gas to wind, solar, geothermal, and other renewable energy sources.”

Technology Research Paper Thesis Statement example: The automobile began with the first steam powered car in 1769, it is very beneficial for transportation, but there are also harms and dangers associated with it. Section 1: Origin/History/Timeline Section 2: Pros/Advantages/Benefits Section 3: Cons/Disadvantages/Harm

Body Section 1 Origin/History/Timeline Body Section 2 Pros/Uses/Benefits/Advantages Body Section 3 Cons/Harm/Danger/Dis-Advantages) (Body Sections will often be longer than 1 paragraph for longer length research papers.) 3 Body Sections of Technology Research Paper

Body Section Topic Sentences Body Section 1 - Topic: Origin/History/Timeline The origin of the automobile goes back to the first steam powered car in 1769 and has a history all of the way through the Ford assembly line of the 1920’s and to the modern electric and even solar powered automobile of today. Body Section 2 - Topic: Pros/Uses/Benefits/Advantages Body Section 3 - Topic: Cons/Harm/Danger/Dis-Advantages

Section/Paragraph 5: Closing Re-state Thesis (In a slightly different way.) o Piece of Body Section 1 Topic Sentence o Piece of Body Section 2 Topic Sentence o Piece of Body Section 3 Topic Sentence Tie to larger societal, environmental, and/or global issues Provide Closure Conclusion Paragraph of Technology Research Paper
