A change of heart...

•  Tell us about the most interesting source you've found so far. What type of source is it? What's the title, and who is the author? Why is it interesting? Give us a brief summary of the source, in 5-6 sentences. The most interesting source that that I have found its a book titled," Sleep, Sleepiness, and Performance" written by a number of different contributors. It is interesting because it gives many facts about sleep that I did not know about. The books is divided into many sections that all have different authors. It provides reader with lots of compiled information about sleep. This includes information ranging from performance consequences to the anatomical effects. The book is filled with graphs and charts. At the end, all of the different sources and contributors are listed at the end. 

• As you've been researching, has your topic changed? Have you revised your inquiry question?  For instance, say your initial question was "Why do some people choose to be vegetarian?" As you've been researching, you've realized how you can narrow your scope to something like "Is it healthy for vegetarian parents to raise their children as vegetarians?" OR "In what ways is being vegetarian better for the environment?" How will narrowing your scope affect your research -and the eventual writing you'll do about this topic? As I did my research in the library on Wednesday, my topic changed. My inquiry question  changed as a whole. It is now,"What are the health risks associated with lack of sleep in college students?" I changed my topic because once I got to the library, there were minimal sources on cell phones. Also this topic relates more to me. I think I will be more interested in this. 

• What challenges are you facing in your research? How might you address these challenges? What research "tips" do you have for your peers? In my research I am finding that it might be difficult to find different point of views of this topic. Most people are saying that it is horrible to go without sleep. To address this issue,I am just going to look through as many sources as possible to see what I come across. I would suggest to my peers to stay on topic and not just try to include a bunch of random facts to fill up space.
