How to write a title
Generally, for an academic writing,
    the title should be
    long    and
    descriptive

The title should contain the main idea of the thesis statement
Thus the title may be thought of as a shorten thesis statement
    written in an easy to read manner

Note that titles for novels, entertainment essays & such 
    may be one word, 
    and are designed more to catch the potential readers attention, 
    and do not usually describe the main point of the writing.
In contrast to that, academic writings such as a term paper are long,
    are not necessary designed to catch attention,
    and describe the main point of the writing
