Choosing a topic

Choosing a topic for research depends somewhat on the assignment you teacher has given you. Likely, your teacher has provided a list of potential topics connected to the curriculum that you are studying from which you can choose. Even if your teacher has not provided a list of topics, the most important element to consider in choosing is . . .

Consider the scope of your topic - is it too big to find focused, relevant information? Is it too narrow to find any information?
