Begin your Research

This module will discuss how to explore and focus your topic, as well as how to form a research strategy.

Your first task is to decide on your research topic. Your topic should be:

• Something you are interested in exploring
• Broad enough to give you several search options
• Focused enough to not overwhelm you with too much information

For this module, let's say our research topic is food.

Next: Brainstorm for Keywords
