So! You have a research paper due later this term, and you're on the right track -- you want to create a schedule to help you plan for each step of the research writing process.

Enter the date on which you want to begin (and it is, really, NEVER too early to start) working on your paper, and the date on which the paper is due, and click the Create Schedule button. We'll create a detailed schedule for you, that you can print out and put on your wall (or in your notebook), with dates you can check off for completion of the various stages you'll need to go through, links to descriptions of the 12 stages and lists of websites that will help you understand the different stages in the process. We'll also provide you with tips for using various research and wriing software tools available now that can help you work smarter, write efficiently -- and generally maximize the time you have for doing your research and writing.

Planning ahead, and then sticking to the plan, can go along way toward improving your grades and sharpening the valuable skills that writing assignments help you build.
