Only Need Part One & Two right now
Part 1: Selection of a problem to study and an initial hypothesis.
Select an issue/problem/topic from one of the physical sciences: physics, chemistry, earth science, or astronomy.
Propose an initial hypothesis related to the issue.
Part 2: Review current research knowledge.
Describe how you could perform a review of current research on the subject/issue. Identify which UMUC Library/database sources could be useful in your research review. What criteria will you use in the selection of review sources from the web?
Do the results of your research review lead you to suspect that your initial hypothesis is correct, or does it suggest that you should modify your initial hypothesis in some way? If so, restate or revise. Are there gaps in the current research that further research/experimentation/observation might fill and shed light on your hypothesis?
