2-1 Activity

Prompt

In this activity, you will make your final topic selection and write a research question that is clear, relevant, and focused. Your research question will evolve as you progress through the course, so what you write now is not final. You will then attempt to look at your historical topic from a different person’s perspective. Use the provided HIS 100 Module Two Activity Research Question Template Word Document to complete this assignment.

Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

• Write a clear, relevant, and focused research question about the topic you have selected.
  • Refer to the module overview and resources for helpful information about writing effective research questions.
• Explain how another person’s beliefs, assumptions, and values may lead that person to create a different question than you.

Guidelines for Submission

Use the provided Module Two Activity Template: Historical Research Question to address the steps above. While references are not required, any sources used should be cited according to APA style if you reference them in your responses.
