I-Search / Research Plan

Background
You’ll be focusing on identifying good research to use in the Problem/Solution Research Paper this week. This discussion will help you establish your credibility for your research topic and identify research questions and process.
Directions for the Discussion Question Response
Begin by briefly explaining the topic you’ve chosen to research this semester. Describe what you thought you knew about the topic, what you assumed, what you imagined, and/or what you have experienced in relation to the topic. The purpose of this is to establish your own credibility by explaining why/how the topic has become important to you.
Then write three strong research questions related to your topic and describe your intended research process in first-person narrative style. Explain the types of information you will try to find in order to answer the question, as well as where and how you plan to look for that information. Be as detailed as possible.
Your response to the discussion question should be at least 250 words, arranged in at least two paragraphs.
