Using Research Questions to Guide Your Research

The video tutorial teaches students how to enhance their research by using burning questions to guide their exploration of new texts. It emphasizes the importance of not just skimming for answers but also being open to discovering new information. The tutorial demonstrates this process using a T-chart to organize questions and findings, using an article about the Civil War as an example. It concludes with a review of the process and encourages generating new questions for further research.
