Research Focus Describe your research question Your question must be “fruitful” and answerable with the materials available to you. If you expect to see a certain answer to your question, you can state that here as well. “Expected answers” cannot be based upon answers you have heard from “Experts.” You must give reasoning for your “expected answer.”

Context: Describe why this is an interesting question and/or what is already known about the idea

Method Describe how you went about answering your question, what data did you collect and why is this the best data to answer your question Explain the method that you plan to use to examine the data. This section should be written in bullet statements, not in paragraph form. If you have time (after completing all of your slides!  ) you may add visuals to illustrate this section.

Data Summary: Describe and include the graphs, tables, or figures you created to organize your data All graphs and data tables must include appropriate labels/headings.

Data Summary State your results in word form. You may either write a paragraph or use bullet statements.
