Introduction - Developing a Research Question

Before beginning your research, it is important to develop a question!

In this module, you we will explore why having a question is important, what a good question should look like, and how to create a focused question from a broad topic.

By the end of this module, you will be able to:

• explain the difference between a research topic and a research question
• convert a broad research topic to an answerable question using the PICO(T) model
• evaluate the importance of developing an answerable question to the larger research process
