Reminders about informed research questions:
- Incorporate or point to the scholarly understandings and perspectives you found when exploring your topic
- Ensure that your research question allows the consideration of other points of view
- Double-check that your question is appropriate for the scope of your assignment
- Avoid writing a question that can be answered with ‘yes’ or ‘no’ and would not require further explanation
**Remember that your approach to your topic can, and probably should, evolve over time as you encounter new information that changes or challenges your perspective.**
