Sheila is developing research questions for a research-based informative essay on the benefits of learning a new language. Read her description of the process she is following.

Since I am learning French in school, I first thought about my own experience with learning a new language. Then, I considered everything I still need to know. I asked myself these questions.

Does my memory improve while I’m learning French?
Does my brain react differently when I’m struggling with a difficult French word?
Does learning a new language improve other skills?
Next, I refocused those questions to start with how and why. I then edited the questions to make them more specific.

Should Sheila revise this approach to include the research she plans to use for her essay?

Yes, she needs to research her topic online to make sure she is not missing any valuable information.
No, she should investigate her research next, now that she has developed topic-based research questions.
Yes, she needs to informally interview students in her French class to understand their experience with language.
No, she completed her research when she used her own experiences to refine her topic-based research questions.
