For Monday (Day 2), write a tentative research question and (based on the handout given in class) identify the kind of question you're asking. In addition, write a paragraph for your research prospectus. If you missed class on Wednesday or Thursday (or if you misplaced it), click here for the handout on developing a research question. You do not need to share this assignment with me yet; but be sure to have it available in class. You will spend most of class working on the research prospectus and pursuing additional sources.
For Tuesday (Day 3) and Wednesday (Day 4), complete a rough draft of the research prospectus. You might find it helpful to look for additional sources to help you think about your topic. Your question might still be changing and developing as you write the prospectus, which is fine. I advise that you keep track of the ways your question is changing; don't delete your old research questions.
