Choosing a Topic

Due by Sunday January 15th at 11:59 pm.

In "Choosing a Topic Through Basic Research" the chapter starts out with the question, "How do you choose a topic?"

Give a brief summary of one of the sections:

1. Brainstorm Topic Ideas: Read, Talk, Sketch, Enjoy

2.Explore Topic Ideas through Preliminary Research

3. Commit to a Single Viable Topic

4. Form a Working Research Question-- and Refine as you go.

What was your take away from the section you summarized? What do you feel is the "best way" to choose a topic? How can you avoid choosing a topic/ research question that you already know the answer to?

Have you chosen a community to work in? If so, what is it? If you've started to choose a research question, what is it?
