Two minutes project

Each group will have about 5 “big” questions. They were told to bump up 2 or 3 to be

their research focus.

Each group was told to answer the following categories first

(created 7 new slides that will be shared by each group member on google docs)

1) What is ______________ (define topic )

-where does this topic happen? –who is affected by topic? (brief)

2) Who is involved in or affected by _________________? (give details and examples)

Explain how.

3) When did this issue begin (brief history of issue) Why did it begin? When did people

start caring? Why?

4) What are the causes of your topic? (why is this an issue today, why does it exist?)

5) What are the effects of you topic? (what are the consequences or negatives that happen

as a result of your topic? )

6. What organizations are available to help? Who are they and what do they do?

7. What can I do to help? How can I make a difference? (action plan with details 5 W’s

+ H)

-think of 3 possible “doable” ideas

Then after all this research is completed they go back and make conclusions on their big

questions.

The categories have been assigned to be completed by Tues, March 15. Next week we

will focus on interviewing skills for expert.
