Project Planning ExerciseThe knowledge we gather from research is a product of the research process and depends on how well we have done at researching. Learning how to research well comes with experience – the more you research the better you get at refining search terms, knowing which sources are best and using your time efficiently. However, each time we conduct research it is beneficial to stop at some point and see what information we have gathered, how helpful that information is, and what else we might need. Now is that time. Start by considering the knowledge you have about your topic. If you have basic knowledge you can probably engage in a one or two minute conversation about that topic. If your knowledge is deep enough to begin a research essay, you should be able to imagine presenting on the topic for 15 or 20 minutes. Do you think you have enough information gathered or knowledge to rely on yet?Consider this: it’s only a start to collect information about your topic, but you’ll have to write about its significance to your topic. Can you do that yet? We can test where we are with our research by asking ourselves the following questions to reflect on what we have and what else we might need:Does the researched information provide background on the topic to situate the knowledge about it – specifically what has been said about it already, what is known or unknown, who has written about it or said it and when?Does the information support or further develop an idea or claim I think I want to make? Is it able to provide evidence that what I’m saying might be true? Does it qualify an idea about my topic that I want to present? Does it provide additional information I can use to add to the significance of the idea(s) I have about this topic?Does the information challenge what I’ve been thinking, or make it more complicated in some way? Does it raise additional questions I may not have considered, or provide a point of view I don’t share? Does it change my thinking in some way?Considering all of these questions, complete the following assignment:Continuing with your Research Grid from Project 1, include the additional sources needed to achieve the 3 scholarly/peer reviewed and 3 popular/public sources needed for this essay. More is a great idea, as it will give you ample information to work with as you move through P2. You may exchange, add, or discard sources at any time, but aim for your TOP 6 for this grid.After gridding your TOP 6 sources, reflect on your body of research as a whole. For this reflection, write a 300-word reflection on where you think your research has led you – what are the key ideas emerging from your sources, and do you have a working hypothesis in mind? Explore what you have – take stock – etc. Use the three prompt questions above to consider your sources and to structure your reflection. At the end of your reflection, come up with three possible thesis statements around which you might organize your essay. You don’t have to stick with any of them – but trying to formulate a thesis at this point will help you understand if you have research to support one.After you have collated and assessed your research, and after you have determined preliminary thesis statements that best represent your work so far, you will think through what MVPs (or Most Valuable Points) of information from your research you think would be important to contribute to an essay. Just list those points for now. Aim for 5-8 MVPs. Looking at your MVPs, what is the significance of each? Does each contribute to the existing conversation around your topic? Do you have evidence to support them? Which ones are stronger ideas and connect to your research more effectively?What other information might help you convey the significance of these points? What do you think might be missing from your research, or make your research stronger? What other points can you imagine making that you might need evidence to support?*** Please submit steps 1-6 to this assignment for review.
