Assignment - Research Project Planning Discussion
Talk about the question you will be focusing on for your class final project. Then discuss how you understand the question. You will not be presenting an argument for one position or another, keep in mind that the focus is inquiry, not argumentation. Your primary goal is to explore your research question with depth and sophistication rather than to persuade an audience of a particular viewpoint. Again, focus on exploring, interpreting, and synthesizing ideas.
Keep in mind, too, that you will carry out your research using published information and opinions. You should not try to do primary research of your own, such as surveys or experiments.
