Share your REVISED research question as a comment below. Make sure to include your name. ALL Anonymous posts will be deleted and will not receive credit for this assignment.
In addition to posting your question, I also want you to read through all of your classmates' questions. Ask yourself: Besides my own observations, how are my classmates making connections between their constructs and their majors and/or personal interests? How are their questions different/similar to mine? What can I do to make my research question the best one possible?
Finally, after you've read through each question carefully, RESPOND to AT LEAST one of the questions that most interests you. Be respectful, first and foremost; then, let your classmate know what you liked about his/her research question, what he/she can do to improve their question, and how their question is similar/different to your own.
DEADLINE: please have YOUR question posted NO LATER than 10pm on Friday, October 9. ALL responses to questions should be posted by 10pm on Saturday, October 10th, no exceptions.
