1. What are some of the previous research projects you have done? Athens and Sparta, The Glory That was Greece, Labyrinths: A Web Quest, and Greek Myths. 2. Based on these projects, what does //research// mean to you? It means to me, finding information you need via books, people, and internet. 3. Describe one of your research successes or failures. Why was the experience positive or negative? One of my "Successes" I guess would be The Glory That Was Greece project mostly because I got a good grade and I didn't find it extremly difficult.

Please make up all of your missed work. Mrs. D

1. I think the webbing process helped/did not help me find a topic because: I think it helped to a point, but it was sort of annoying because you 'd find a topic that you really like and were wanting to do but you still had to find two more. Besides that I'd say it was pretty helpful.

1. Topic: My topic is Doaism. 2. Why you chose it: I choose it because you think it's interesting and you think I'm interesting. HAHA just kidding. I choose it because to me it sounds like life should be lived...in peace. 3. What you already know about your topic: I know that doaism's goal is to be at one with man and nature. It's said that to be at peace with man you must first be at peace with nature, and vice-versa.

Fat Question: What is the purpose of Daoism?

1. Describe how the pre-notetaking sheet helped you find both focus for your topic and research questions to investigate. Did you find it easy or difficult to create a fat question from your ideas? I think that the pre-notetaking sheet helped tremendously in the sense that I found more information just asking my self questions than I would have "winging it".
