- Develop 4 research questions related to your topic before you begin research. Show me your research questions before proceeding. These will guide your research and become the key ideas in your presentation
- Each member of the group must contribute to the research and present during the final presentation
- Take careful notes on the note sheets provided or on lined paper. Be sure to list where the notes come from (which book or website). You will need to hand in your notes with a copy of your presentation.
