Part One
- What kind of research do you think is more important: One that delivers fact or one that advocates or a specific solution?
- Identify a few research papers that use the two different paths to present research. What one did you find more effective? Why?
- Can you visualize a way to use your preferred pathway to create a research paper that finds a better balance between people and nature? Explain how briefly.
- In what ways do your skills compliment this pathway?
Part Two
- Gather as a class and have a discussion. Debate the two different pathways to writing a research report and have the class vote on their preferred pathway. Is there a right answer?
