Paragraphs what are for the paper

Topics?

1) The history of animation? Maybe a cool run-down of the biggest, most important things, running from the first one ever made in 1908, to present day? Plus there were those round things you could turn in the past and look through a slot to see an animated image, and then in Egyptian times they had pictures on pillars in a sequence so when you rode past quickly it would appear animated. Maybe some of that kind of thing...

2) The effects of video game violence on kids? Lots of people think that violent video games like Grand Theft Auto and stuff makes kids who play them violent. I think that's crazy! I could look look up graphs and stuff to show how wrong this idea is.

3) Robots? robots are cool. A paper about neat robots that live today, fun ones, useful ones, military ones, and stuff. Makes for quite the essay, eh?
Eh?

  1. The history of animation is too broad. Remember that this is only an 8-10-page paper, not a book. You could zero in on one era's or one person's impact on animation as a whole. Robots are an even broader category, but clearly you could narrow that. The effects of video game violence on kids is actually do-able. You could argue against it, of course, but you'd need to make sure your sources are scholarly.
