The research inquiry project maps directly to all of our learning outcomes for ENGL 102. This is an independent research effort, supported by instructors and research librarians. Our final products include an annotated bibliography, a visual presentation and an accompanying script. Research a topic of interest, narrow a topic, develop a research question, find, evaluate, integrate and document sources, understand and use conventions of genre within an academic discipline, read, re-read, analyze and synthesize a variety of sources, draft, review, revise, and edit a presentation, follow presentation best practices and gain experience presenting to an audience of peers. The final product of your research will be a 10-minute presentation, a documentary or collage, which includes a combination of text and images with the option to incorporate video and sound. Your presentation will be accompanied by a 10-page narrative script. You will develop a research topic of your choice, but your research question must, in some way, engage our course theme .
