Hip Hop and the Poetics of Liberation: Tips

Research Plan

Research Plan:

The research process is a series of multiple steps. Look at creating a research plan. Your instructor may have given you a topic/question to research or the freedom to come up with your own topic/question. Just take a few moments to think about the following: 

  1. What am I trying to accomplish?
  2. How interested am I in this idea?
  3. How much time do I have?
  4. What information and resources are available? 
  5. Does your issue have sub-topics that you need to know more about? 
  6. What is the assigned length of the research paper?

Body Project Assignment:

This final assignment is an original research project that you will design in coordination with Professor Chresfield. This is a scaffolded assignment meaning there are touch points before the final project is due. This include developing a research question, an annotated bibliography, and key argument talk. This components will be graded on completion and comprise 5% of the final grade. The rest of the project grade is derived from the final deliverable itself.
