This is the first post for my project one and I am definitely dazed and confused, juggling three classes is proving to be too much at the moment because I can't seem to focus on one at any given time. It has been too long since I have been in school. Oh well, I should stop complaining and work. I think I have narrowed down my topics to the following: Lacrosse, Civil War, Beer. I am pretty good at jumping off springboards, not literally, but figuratively. Dr. Lamb gave me a few suggestions and Civil War was one of them.
Yes I have often been fascinated by the Civil War and really have only skimmed the surface of this topic. But this topic is very broad and I am not sure it will hold my interest if I try to narrow it.
Beer is starting to bubble to the top. And why not, I like it. There are a lot of questions I can come up to study, When was it created, how many types are there, how is it made, what comprises the different types, etc.
Lacrosse has some personal interest because my oldest son played for the first time last year. I was able to follow the game, but there were some things I did not understand. At the initial meeting we were told that it was played by the native americans and also has ties to the creation of basketball. But I cannot come up with a lot of questions besides the normal who, what, when, where and how. All good questions but I don't see much more depth than that.
I will ponder this a little further...
You have an excellent start. Keep it up. Beer... what a yummy topic. Annette :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is always a nice conversation starter when you say that you have to study beer for class :)
