Blog #15: Research Ideas

The episode I will be using for my research paper I think will give me a lot of research options. As I already talked about in my blog, it deals with a theme that applies to everyone. With more power comes more responsibility. I think this is a great starting point for my research, because it definitely is a good lesson to learn as well as it being relatable to a new coming college student taking on more responsibility, and power as well. Also, in this episode the major ’high school life’ lesson to be learned where she simply cannot balance all of her responsibilities: handling schoolwork, spending time with friends, relationships with boys, and of course being a superhero. This is also very relatable and I think can lead to a large amount of articles on the stress of modern life and teen life in particular With this in mind, I decided to narrow my topic of research to the responsibilities and pressures of college students especially. I’m not sure if I will have to broaden or narrow my topic in any ways, but it is flexible and it is a very relevant issue as well. This research idea was easy for me to come up with and so I will cut my blog short this time of 250 words. Sorry.

  1. Hey Sam I think that was a good choice responsibilities and pressures of college students cause I think that is the most topic with college students in today society. When you come to college you are on your own and you choose the right and wrong things to do with that comes a lot of responsiblities. Then pressure comes in from you ae on your own and its a big step from high school a lot of college students be pressured everyday.

  2. Very good choice in topics, just make sure you narrow it down a bit so that you can make specific references to the thesis/main scene. Otherwise it should make a great (and long) paper.
