All good research starts with a question. The best research questions are open-ended, not 'yes' or 'no' questions. After you have chosen a topic and before you begin your research, think of two or three questions you want to answer about your topic. Write them down! And know that your questions can evolve and change as you dig deeper and learn more about your topic.
