Research questions focus our attention on three aspects of preliminary inquiry: (1) the topic is well focused and limited, (2) the topic raises an issue or presents a problem worthy of examination, and (3) the topic invites research into outside sources. The use of research questions is explained in WRP, section 2a. Provided below are a few topics to provoke discussion in order to frame appropriate research questions:
FOR EXAMPLE: If I were looking at the American Dream theme/topic from our journal, I might consider the following preliminary questions for inquiry:
1. Has the American Dream Died?
2. Was there ever an American Dream?
3. Is the American Dream a myth?
4. Do Americans still believe in the American Dream?
5. Are there aspects of the American Dream that are still achievable?
