In preparation for Project 1, the Topic Exploration Worksheet, you will review guiding questions about three topic areas to get a sense of what topic area you would be interested in focusing on and get you started in thinking about Project 1. In Project 1, you will identify a topic area for you to explore, describe what you already know about your topic, and describe what types of sources would provide you with useful information to learn more about your topic.

Before you start reviewing the topic areas (below), think about what you already know about the topic. You may already be familiar with it from previous educational experiences. It is OK to choose a topic area you are already familiar with or choose one that is totally new to you.

While reviewing the topic areas, you are welcome to browse the library guide to see the kinds of primary and secondary sources recommended for each topic area or locate your own resources. There is no need to pursue all or any of the guiding questions posed.
