SPPS Research Process: Step 1: Understand Your Assignment

Understand Your Assignment

Read through your assignment. What are the requirements? What opportunities do you have for personal choice? Taking time to organize your project now can save time and frustration down the road. Throughout the project you will need to:

  • Collect. How will you save articles, videos, images, etc. to use later?
  • Cite. Make sure you're keeping track of websites, articles, and images as you go.
  • Notes. How do you plan on taking and storing notes? Check to see if your teacher has a required format for note-taking.
