I am glad to have read this chapter before deciding on my research topic. It has taught me on how to approach and formulate question. Since I started thinking about a question nothing have helped in any direction I looked. I loved Badke statement “a thesis and research questions is a flip side of a coin.” This made me comprehend more on how to model my question so it will not lead me to a dead end while doing the research. Also as a junior student writing many papers I a thought my outline will come from my paper. I now under why it took me so long to write a piece of paper. Badke also warn us to stay away from wikipedia since anyone could edit the information thou it carries a bulk of info. He also commend us to understand the question then gather and synthesis data pertaining to the question.
