ALP Level 3: The Research Process

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.
