Starting to find research for my project was not an easy task with many of the websites I tried to use being blocked or restricted. I combated this by using websites such as Ebsco and google scholar to find scholarly research that would help me gather enough research to start to get my project approved. I also looked at the sources the articles I was looking at used to see if I could gain any information and from those sources to further advance my argument.

While continuing to research I started to run into an issue with finding credible research on Ebsco and google scholar. I ended up countering this issue by doing common searches and then looking at the sources they used. I then conducted my research proposal and my methodology to make sure that I would be good to get approved for my project and continue researching.

After finishing my research proposal and meeting with Mrs.Dobos to make sure that my project was good enough to be approved and that I would be able to create my final research project. I ended up being approved and now am planning to continue researching and starting to code for each of the athletes from each of the nations that have been caught doping or using steroids.
