Michigan Research Project Options
*Once you have your topic it is time to think about what you need to find out about your topic.
• What happened?
• When did it happen?
• Who was involved?
• How and why did it happen?
• How does it relate to other events or issues in the past, in the present, or in the future?
• What is its significance?
*Now that you know your questions, you can begin to research your topic using books, the internet, and your textbook at school. Record all your notes on your research guide, and if you need extra space use lined paper. Be sure to provide as much information and detail as possible.
