a problem that affects society
or personal daily living?

a specific topic?
2. Read General
Background Information
• Ideas can come from issues
and subjects covered in
course readings and lectures
• Background Information can
help you prepare for further
research by explaining all the
issues related to your topic,
especially when you're
investigating a field that's
unfamiliar to you.
2. Read General
Background Information
• Reading broad summaries
enable one to get an overview
of the topic and see how the
idea relates to broader,
narrower and related issues.
• Refer to books such as
encyclopedias, journals,
newspaper articles and also
the internet.
3. Narrow the topic into
something manageable
• If your topic is too broad, you
will find too much information
and not be able to focus.
• Narrow the topic’s scope by:
Limiting the topic to a
particular approach to the
issue
Considering only one piece of
the subject
