My Research Topic

4a) Make a final decision about your logical argument research topic. What is it? Questions to ask yourself: Drunk Driving 

What have we been studying in class this year?
How to properly use the internet, how it works, the origin of the world wide web, ways to do research both online and in libraries.
Which subjects appeal to me?
Subjects that revolve around sympathetic situations that could be prevented. 
What are people writing about?
People are writing about headline issues that are present in the world. There are situations that have first line in terms of its need to be handles. 
What's most interesting to me?
Some ideas that are interesting to me are how drunk driving became prominent, statistics about the the number and types of accidents as well as group statistics based on age.
Can I find information about that?
I can definitely find information about that. Some things i can research are:
How many teens get into drunk driving accidents?
How many drunk driving related accidents happened in new york?
Which state or city has the highest rate of drunk driving related accidents?


4b) Why are you most interested in the topic of argument selected?
     Im interested in the topic of drunk driving because its one of the easier deaths to prevent, but its one of the top reasons people die in accidents. I think a lot of people know what to do, but do not apply their education when they need it. That is the part that interests me the most, students learning how to apply their knowledge of drunk driving.
