-What is your research question/inquiry question?
My inquiry started off as asking about the fast food and how they interact with people. But I soon realized it would be better to look at the companies themselves. So my question is "is the buisness model behind the fast food industry hurtful to people's health?"
-Why did you settle on this question? What interests you about the topic? Explain
Because I was always curious how McDonald's and other fast food places defended themselves against the criticism of the production of their foods and how they sometimes get away with it.
-How is your question/topic timely? Why is it important to address this topic? Why should people care about it?
Because to this day McDonald's is still trying to change their policy and their food production and regulations.
-What do you expect to find in your research? What preliminary research have you done that makes you expect this?
The more cold side of fast food business than people know and love. But also how crazy some of the health nuts are in their criticism. I read up on the history of how Mcdonald's got started and also watched the movie supersize me.
-Are you coming across scholars w/ different answers to your question,
or different views of your topic? (If you're NOT and people seem to
all agree, then your research question and topic probably aren't worth
pursuing, right?) Explain what these answers/views are that you are
finding. (Remember that our textbook warns us of the dangers of binary
thinking on pg. 6.)What do you think about the different viewpoints?
Where do you stand on the issue, and do you think your mind could change
the further you get into this semester-long inquiry?
I have not gotten to looking into scholars yet. I've been mostly looking at incidents so far.
-Any questions or concerns you'd like to address?
