Research Process

My research process starts with looking up a broad topic. I want to see the strong and weak points in the information that i can obtain so that i can narrow my topic according to the amount of information that i can receive. Once i have found out what strong points that i can use in my research i start to search for these main points one by one. By doing so i am able to find a good amount of information on the subject that i am researching. Researching can be frustrating if there is a set subject that we have to research and if there is no way around it. This is because many times there won't be a lot of information on the given subject. But overall researching isn't very frustrating, its more tiring because it requires focusing in for a long time.

For my issues paper i was researching to find information that argued in support of the globalization of American pop culture through the media, but this did not work so well for me. I realized that most of the information and articles that I could find were against American Pop culture and argued that it had a negative influence. This changed my research process and i began to look at opposing views to American Pop Culture. The next time that I am asked to write a research paper I will first try and see what is the best trail to take before trying to take a hard trail that in the long run will make turn around to take another.
