Beyond the Basics: The Research Process at UCBA

The Developing a Research Question video (2:31 minutes) reviews the difference between a research topic and a research question plus things to consider.

Reminders:

• Talk with your professor to determine if the topic or question meets the scope of the assignment
• Make sure you go through the topic or question approval process if required by your professor 

The Mapping Your Research Ideas video (2:53 minutes) explains how to create a map using your research idea. You can download the Keyword Map worksheet (Word document link), use blank paper, or open a new Word document on your device.
