I-Search Papers: Step One

Today we wil begin to go over the requirements for our I-Search Paper. Your most important goal today is to find a topic that you truly want to investigate that is interesting to a general audience, informative, and lends itself to research. I will take you through my process of finding several topics and then you will begin to generate your own topic ideas. Tomorrow in class, we will begin w/ a sharing of our topics in small groups. We will also post on our class blog the answers to the following questions: What is my topic? & Why am I interested in this topic? So, it is important to enter class with a topic tomorrow!
