The first chapter of The Bedford Researcher, which is titled Getting Started, is split into two halves. The first half of the chapter asks how you can research and write with confidence. It begins to answer this question throughout this half, mentioning that taking ownership of the project is a crucial part of writing with confidence. After that, this half of the chapter then goes into the process of writing a research paper, listing of the steps and mentioning some helpful hints as how to write a research paper, such as understanding how the genre and design of a document help your reader, and understanding how context will affect your readers.
The second half of the chapter goes into appropriate topic selection for a research paper. The chapter goes into steps for how to choose a topic. It splits this task up into three sub chapters, the first of which goes into studying the assignment to find what the topic would be, as well as the audience and their reasons for reading this assignment. After going into some details about this, it then goes into how brainstorming your assignment is helpful, and some of the ways to brainstorm. The chapter wraps up by having the reader consider the writing situation and the level of interest that the writer has in this topic versus the level of interest the readers will have in a topic.
