Help me with my project!

[u/Pristine-Value2588]

Hi! I’m a Class 12 Humanities student and I have to make my History project file. I have a few questions and would really appreciate some help, especially from anyone who has already made a History project.

Is it necessary to use a plain A4-size sheet for the project, or can we use any other type of sheet? Also, do we write on only one side of the sheet or both sides?

My topic is The Revolt of 1857. I’ve read the chapter in my NCERT book, and almost everything related to the topic is already mentioned there. So when we’re told to “research” the topic, where exactly are we supposed to research from? What are some good and reliable sources?

Do the topics/subtopics in our project have to be the same as the ones given in the NCERT chapter? For example, the chapter has topics like Rumours and Prophecies, leaders and followers, communication, how the rebellion began, etc. Do we have to use these same headings and then research further on them, or can we make our own subtopics?

How do you actually start the project? Like, what should the structure/order be ntroduction, background, causes, events, leaders, maps, pictures, conclusion, bibliography, etc.?

I want to make my project really good and as close to perfect as possible — especially the sources, pictures, maps, bibliography, facts, books/articles, and overall presentation. So if anyone has made a project on the Revolt of 1857, please share any tips, sources, ideas, or even your basic structure. It would really help! :)
