9/5 Refining Research Question



Refining my research question is a taste on both sides of easy and complicated. I’m wanting to research on the impact of art in math and its effects on students, teachers, and artists. While that sentence can be confusing, if you read it two or three times over, you’ll catch it. With today’s exercise, I will refine my research question by looking at what I want the reader to grasp, understand, and appreciate about art and its role in mathematics. Learning from the exercise, I do not want my research question to be too broad or too narrow; I want to have it specific enough where I will be able to extend on my points. I can also refine my topic by paying attention to what points and measures my question is looking at. I feel that my direction is good for my research question. It is always good to find a research question that everyone can relate to, in the sense that they feel they can agree on some level. To refine my research question, I am going to make sure that people will be able to relate to it, even if they do not have the same major as mine.
