Sophia: Developing Research Questions: Focus Your Research

This tutorial focuses on why it is important to have a question in mind before beginning research; how to pick a research question based on personal interests or finding gaps; and choosing a topic that is interesting, researchable, significant, manageable, and not overdone. This is accomplished using a YouTube video of "Sid the Science Kid" who begins each episode with a question to research, an audio clip, and a slideshow. Real Player is required. W.9-10.7 Research
