Reading Log Due Friday Dec 9th

RESEARCHING WITH MULTIPLE AGENDAS/ QUESTIONS
Researchers, tonight, as you research, continue holding your own agenda in mind as you read. Your research question should be front and center as you tackle your new text. That is, if you are reading about droughts, your agenda might be, “Who has power over water?” If you are reading about earthquakes, your agenda might be, “Where are the most potentially dangerous places to live?”
One thing to consider though, is just like your ideas about your topic evolved as you gathered more information, so too could your research question. As you read tonight, you may find that your initial question along with your new learning may lead you to an additional research question or idea; try coming up with an additional agenda or question as you tackle your reading. If you are studying tsunamis, perhaps one question you have is, “What part of the tsunami causes the most destruction?” And another could be, “How does poverty influence tsunami damage?” Read with both these questions in mind, adding the new information you learn to your growing collection of notes on your topic. Write a summary of your notes on the blog.
