Read this student’s description of his research plan.I began by deciding on a research topic based on the prompt. I continued by creating a schedule to plan the time each step would take. Then I began researching and taking notes. I organized the information I found and then wrote my draft. Finally, I revised my draft for readability and published my essay.

This step fits between choosing the topic and beginning research. Creating a schedule is already included, while a hook and revision belong later in the writing process.
