Your research...

I have commented on the blogs that had posts about your research plans.

Today, you need to start your research. That will look different for each group depending on whether your question can be answered by an experiment, a survey or information from the internet.

If you are designing an experiment, consider all that you have learnt in science when you are putting it together. You will need to consider variables and a control.

If you are designing a survey, consider whether you need a sampling question at the beginning to discover whether the person being surveyed has anything to say on the subject before you try to gather specific data from them. Also, you need to send me your survey before you send it to anyone. Consider it your pilot survey to check for any errors.

If you are gathering data from the internet, start by developing your lines of argument and preparing a note taking strategy.
