As our lectures and readings note, academic writers make inquiries. As you read through the article of your choice, did questions occur to you? In asking these questions, did you realize that you might need more information to properly answer them? For example, in our last activity, "Entering the Conversation," I responded to the article "Why Games are Good for You" by Steven Johnson. I primarily disagreed with his article, so I thought of some good points that might refute his claims, but I also realized I would need more research to properly do so.

The following research questions occurred to me:

1. Are there sources that talk about the detrimental content of some video games?
2. Should I explore the idea of video game addiction? Is that relevant to my main point? Are there articles on this?
3. Can we really separate how we think from what we think?
4. Are there philosophers that discuss this distinction?
5. All of these questions would require research. In this activity, you are going to ask questions like these, and let them lead you to a plan of inquiry that will guide your research
