Word Circles are a useful tool for helping narrow your field of research, or just to find something to research in the first place. They allow us to take our subject area and look within them to find interesting questions for our research projects.
There are four simple steps to creating a word circle, and they are as follows:
Step 1:
Write a number of words related to your subject area on to a page, then take the words that most prominently relate to your subject area and arrange them in a circle on another page
Step 2:
Pick a few words in your circle and use them to create a question. It doesn't matter if the words don't quite relate or if the question sounds strange.
Step 3:
Take these question and attempt to answer them briefly.
Step 4:
Use these answers to create new questions, then repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have what you need to create your essay.
