Share TWO (2) topics that you are interested in basing your semester-long project upon in this discussion. As you think about your topic ideas, you want to be sure it meets the following criteria:
- You have a broad area that you want to start with (i.e. race relations; technology; the healthcare system, etc.).
- It is narrowed — you can narrow on the basis of gender (i.e. men or women); race (i.e. African American); age (i.e. Millennials); geographic location (i.e. NYC); etc.
- There is a substantial amount of secondary research that exists on your topic — do a Google Scholar search and use the databases to see if you can find some good articles.
- It is something that you could research further today — meaning you could formulate a survey or interview people about this topic now. As a note…you WON’T be thinking about this until later on in the semester, so there is no need to write a survey or do interviews now.
- It connects to the course theme of The Power of Storytelling: Narratives of Past, Present, and Future. See the syllabus for full theme statement.
