Steps
for this Project
You will follow the Research Cycle as you work
through this project. The steps are:
Questioning
Guiding question: "What causes conflicts among people, and how
do people attempt to resolve those conflicts?" Focus
questions: think of smaller
questions to guide your planning and research.
Planning
Decide on what jobs your team will need to do in order to get the
information to answer your questions. What will each team member do to make
the team successful?
Gathering
You will visit various web sites to gather information.
Sorting
and Sifting
Now it is time to arrange and rearrange the information to focus on what is
important to your project.
Synthesizing
What decisions can you make, using the information you gathered?
What information do you still need to find?
Gather, Sort, Sift,
Synthesize
Repeat these steps
until you have all the information you need.
Evaluating
Is the information sufficient to develop and support a policy decision? How
did your team work together to meet the requirements of the task?
Reporting
You will translate your findings into a persuasive,
instructive, and effective presentation to the President and the Middle
East Think Tank.
