WHAT IS COVERED IN THIS WORKSHOP?
In this workshop, participants will learn how to get started on a research project, including how to focus their research topic from a too broad or too specific subject to one that is more researchable. Gale Virtual Reference and two social issues databases are explored as great places for background reading to start the research process. Other tips include creating visual aids to stimulate your thinking and how to get unstuck in developing your research topic or thesis.
"Once you've got the topic, it's all downhill from there. ...as long as you've narrowed it down enough."
- Allison Gill on her The Daily Beans podcast's "Good News" segment on November 2?, 2023 in celebrating the acceptance of a listener's thesis topic.
