To get the ball rolling for your Focus on Research project, brainstorm at least five
different research questions that interest you. For each question, be sure to specify a life stage or age range (e.g., early childhood, adolescence, middle age, later adulthood, etc.) and an area of development (e.g., cognitive, emotional, social, identity, physical, etc.). Build these directly into the questions you pose. Here are some examples to get you started:
How does a constructivist approach to teaching early childhood support young children’s social development?
How does inclusion of special needs students in mainstream elementary classrooms affect emotional management skills for special needs students and mainstream students?
Does permissive parenting during early childhood affect the emotional development of adolescents?
How does nutrition and exercise during puberty impact a child’s cognitive functioning?
What is the emotional impact of being a caregiver for both an aging parent and young children during middle age?
A good way to make sure you have a specific question is to make a hypothesis first and turn it into a question. So, if you want to know about technology’s affect on development (a really large topic area), you could narrow it to something like:
How does screen time during early childhood impact a child’s attention span?
OR How does social media activity during adolescence affect a teenager’s stress level?
After you post your questions, review the questions of at least two other students in our class. Offer at least three suggestions to them to help find resources, narrow down and help choose their final question, and/or discuss the benefits of discovering answers to a specific question. Be helpful!
