  1. Objective: (Students will be able to…) • Understand how to formulate research questions and cite sources in preparation for the final Senior Research Project.

  2. Preparing for: Senior Research Project How to… cite sources (use a “citation maker”) styles: MLA vs. APA write research questions open-ended only!

  3. Select Your Topic • Broad topics MUST be narrowed down. ex:China is too broad! try: Chinese Weddings • Bad: Are arranged marriages still a part of Chinese culture? • Good: How has the concept of marriage changed in Chinese history?

  4. You try: (Topic = frogs) • Narrow it down. • Develop a “Bad ?” • Change it to a “Good ?” • - Bad: How many frogs are endangered? • + Good: What are the causes for endangerment of frogs?

  5. Cite Your Sources • What do you know about this? • Use a citation maker (see library “Links”) WORKS CITED: Sullivan, Jennifer.  “Inmates Successfully Raise Endangered Frogs”. Naruto Forums. 22 March 2011 <http:// www.narutoforums.com/ showthread.php?t=518297>. 

  6. Take Notes: (what’s wrong?) Inmates at the Cedar Creek Corrections center are staffing a project to bolster the dwindling population of the Oregon spotted frog. The results of their 85-cent-per-hour job has stunned researchers

  7. Take Correct Notes “Inmates at the Cedar Creek Corrections center are staffing a project to bolster the dwindling population of the Oregon spotted frog. The results of their 85-cent-per-hour job has stunned researchers”(Sullivan 4).
