Unit One: Exploratory Research

In this unit, we will learn how to formulate research questions that are narrow and focused. Students will choose a topic that interests them, create a research question, and locate credible sources to answer the question. We will learn how to evaluate sources for credibility and reliability and how to integrate sources effectively. We will explore uses of generative artificial intelligence in the writing process. Finally, we will practice giving and receiving constructive peer feedback to improve our writing.
