Helen Scott
STEP SIX

Draft Three: 16 May
The draft I gave my adviser.
FINAL DRAFT: 24 May
STEP SEVEN
SUBMIT THE ESSAY
STEP FOUR:
Collect Resources
STEP ONE:
Choose an IB subject
STEP FIVE:
I really like books and I wanted to study literature so I chose Group One.
Plan
STEP TWO:
Choose a topic area
I wrote 3 outlines that got progressively more detailed.
I really wanted to study The Comedian, in "Watchmen", so I researched anti-heroes in classic literature and found Ivan Ilych.
STEP THREE:
Formulate a PRECISE research question
My topic and my research question (except for minor re-wording) has never changed.
Compare how the authors of "Watchmen" and "The Death of Ivan Ilych" use language to create the archetypal anti-hero in The Comedian and Ivan Ilych. Compare how these characters are similar in their portrayal as immoral, the confrontation of their inevitable death, and their feelings of abandonment.
