Ways of Exploring a Topic

HOW  DOES  ONE  SURVEY \ EXPLORE   A  TOPIC?

Use  personal  reading  for  academic  research.

Browse  in  the  library.

Interview  people  who  are  experts  in  the  field.

Do  a  survey  of  concerned  participants (ie. Speak  to  other  scholars  or  experts  in   the  same  field  as  yours).

Observe  activities  relating  to  to  your  topic.  (eg.  Articles  published  in  literary  magazines  and  journals).

View  videotapes,  films,  or  other  media  presentations.
All  forms  of  research  require  that  you  keep  records  of   where  you  got  your  information.

WHAT  ARE  THE  CHARACTERISTICS  OF  A  GOOD  WRITING  TOPIC?

  • IT  IS  IMPORTANT:   A  good  topic  is  important  to  you  and  your  readers.
  • IT  IS  FRESH:  A  good  topic  is  new  to  you  or  your  readers,  or  your  approach  to  a  familiar  topic  is  fresh.  Don’t  reject  topics  that  seem  quirky  or  strange  at  first,  they  may  lead  to  your  freshest  writing.
  • IT’S  A  CHALLENGE:  Choose  topics  that  challenge  your  thinking,  curiosity  or  feeling.  Easy  topics  may  lead  to  boredom  for  you  and  your  readers
