The research project requires a 10-page document, 5 PowerPoint slides, and the option to choose any topic, provided it can relate to the university. It must incorporate various sources, including daily news, written essays, interviews, and survey results presented in graphs or tables. The final goal is to inform the audience, with persuasion being optional if the topic is argumentative.

1. Research project
Your research project must include:

presentation)
★Connection of the topic to my university for example if the
topic about food or ingredient so I can relate it by asking a
chemistry teacher about the chemicals in the food anything to
relate to my university works so don’t care about the topic (just
let me know so I can interview someone and send it to you or
try to relate it with conference here in my university)
★Use of the Daily News, Chicago Tribune, or The New York
Times
★Use of at least one other short written source (Can be an essay

Curry, Levine, Whitman or the article you summarized earlier in
the semester. Can be non-fiction or fiction. (I’ll send you essay

should be incorporated in a format other than a
Question/Answer transcript, but you can put the transcript in an
Appendix.)(
