In Unit 1, you began planning one of your stories for your final project. In this activity, you will add to that outline by finding research. But first, you’ll need to create a research plan. Answer the questions below, and then update your outline to include the information you found during your research. You’ll submit BOTH your research plan and your updated outline. Research Plan QUESTIONS What’s your topic? Identify the whos/whens of the topic that you already know. Is there any terminology that you need to know? What do you need to know? Make a list of at least five questions that you want/need to answer. Underneath, write keywords/search terms that you can use and the type of source that would be best to answer the question. List 10 results (website address and a brief explanation of how you think you might use that source) that you found from the search you conducted using the search terms/keywords you listed above. Evaluate five of those sources, using the questions from the unit. At the end of each, answer whether you think it’s credible or not credible. Did you find what you were looking for? Did you answer the questions you listed above? If not, how can you/will you change your search terms? Once you have found credible sources to use in your news story, add the information to the appropriate place on the outline you completed for Unit 1.
