Evaluation
1. Identify the process that you used to investigate the assignment topic.
I defined a main question and sub-questions. I first tried to find the answers to my subquestions, so I could answer my main question. The sub questions were easy to answer. After
that I looked for the similarities and the differences. The similarities were hard to find.
For my research, I searched on the internet to get information. I looked the most for
information about the French revolution because it was a new subject for me. I put in my
findings in a table and I kept a list of similarities and differences. This gave me overview.
2. Respective the process that you used to investigate the topic:
a) How effective was it?
It was very effective. Because I had a specific and focused question I could look for the right
and specific information.
b) What would you do the same next time?
Next time I will make a focused question again instead of a very wide question (I did this in
my science essay). This gives me focus.
