Activity 1: Introduction
At this point, you should identify who besides yourself might be interested in the information you gather and interpret. That is, who would most likely be affected by your topic? Who would best understand the implications or likely consequences of your findings? It is a good idea to select an audience with which you are very familiar, such as other students or the general public. Within these larger categories, you should identify a smaller group who will be relatively easy to describe. This way, you’ll know what content to include and what to leave out, what terms you will need to define, what word choices to make and what responses your readers might make after having read your research paper.
