What is Research?
Research is the investigation of a topic or question in order to establish facts, analyze and review information, or reach new conclusions. Research requires that we seek information outside of our own experiences and opinions.

We develop a well organized reflection of what we've discovered, making sure to give credit to authors of original thoughts and ideas used to support our arguments.
