Explain the relationship of the problem you would like to solve/ the question you would like to explore. demonstrate contextual thinking in your articulation of your questions’ or problem’s relationship to your fields of study, your historic intellectual development and future goals Draft questions that will set the foundation for how you plan to approach your vetting/autoethnography, digital ethnography, archival research project, annotated bibliography and research rationale.Learning Outcomes Apply the theories, and critical perspectives of at least two academic disciplines. (Critical Thinking, Communication) Synthesize the theories, critical perspectives of at least two disciplines into a preliminary plan of research.
