Because it is the first week of class, please begin your discussion post with a brief introduction so we can all get to know each other. Please share your name, your career goals (or your plans for what to do with your degree once you finish), and one fun fact about you.

What are some important characteristics to keep in mind when developing research questions? Do you begin with a broad topic, narrow it, and then develop your research question(s). Or do begin with a potential research question before you choose a topic. Discuss which best describes your approach to developing research questions, and describe how you developed your research question in HS 4990.
