4) Finish brainstorming a list of questions that you'd like to use for your research
As a class, we've been working on generating questions about a topic of study. We've discussed what a good research question is and practiced generating questions. The big point we've looked at is - will this question be easy to answer and do research on. A question that is too general might lead to frustration during research.
Example -> Topic - Modern Farming
General research question - How do they farm?
More specific question - What type of machinery is used to farm?
Students should be brainstorming a list of about 10 to 15 questions that they could potentially research. Tomorrow, we will be looking at focusing in on about 5 really valuable research questions.
