Develop sophisticated research questions based on your topic invention exercises, your background research, your lightning talks. Additionally, you will synthesize, summarize, and cite your background research.

Objectives:

1.1 Identify potential topics and areas of interest for your research project (DESIGN).

1.2 Explore different approaches to the research process (PREPARE).

1.3 Conduct background research on your potential topic (PREPARE).

1.8 Develop sophisticated research questions to guide your research process (DESIGN, PREPARE, and CREATE).

Instructions 1. In a summary, synthesize the background research you have conducted about your topic.

2. Compose 1-3 sophisticated research questions you have developed from your topic invention and background research processes.

3. Cite the sources you have used in your background research to develop and compose your research questions.

Outcomes Synthesize your background research (PREPARE). Summarize your background research (COMMUNICATE). Compose sophisticated research questions (DESIGN and CREATE). Cite the sources used to develop your research questions (PREPARE).
