Research Topics

I didn’t know it was going to be this hard to find an interesting research topic.  We have discussed so many different topics and yet it is still very difficult to choose.  I’ve decided to look back on every assignment we have had so far and see what I am most interested in writing about.  So with that said I’ve narrowed it down to two choices: the regulation of gatekeeping in digital media or when does research cross the line and be considered plagiarism?  From the first day we spoke about gatekeeping I took an interest to it.  It made me really wonder how things are monitored and allowed.  However, I have always been interested in plagiarism seeing as how one person thinks that their research isn’t violating any rules and yet their professor thinks otherwise.  So this decision may not be as difficult as it sounds, but it’s not easy.
