The purpose of research is to learn and grow. Although the research process is complex, it can be broken down into four areas. Think - What interests me? What would I like to know? Create - Gather information appropriate to the task, and determine what you don't know. Share - Communicate what you have learned, and your creation of new knowledge. This can be a research paper, presentation, or discussion. How have you shared information in the past? Grow - Reflect on what you learned and where you did well in the research process. What would you change? You now know more than you did before.
