Teaching

A school related interest that I have is teaching. I want to become and elementary school teacher. This research proposal would not only help me learn more about teaching, but it will also help me in my funture. I'm taking a class for classroom management this semester so I do know a little bit about teaching. But there is a lot more I would like to know. The major question I would ask is, what are the qualifications to become an elementary school teacher. Do people have to continue taking classes throughout their teaching career? Also what does it take to be a good teacher. In order to be a good teacher people have to read about teaching and practice before they become a teacher. Many people dont think reading about teaching anf classroom managent is important, but the questions i have asked will show that it helps a lot. This questions will lead to others, causing more in depth research and answers.

Video Games

I have always wondered how video games are made even though I only play them every so often. I have watched other people play all kinds of different games before. Everytime I watch people play video games I always think to myself, how they are made and how design them. It seems like its impossible for someone to think about making things like that. I don't know anything about how video games are made but i want to find out. How long does it take to make a video game? What kind of technology does it take to design a game? How are the characters created in the game? There are many questions I could ask to find research about video games. Knowing how to play video games is completely different then knowing how they are made, and that is one thing I want to learn more about. This is my second choice for my research proposal.

Soccer

One of my personal interests is soccer. I have played soccer since I can remember when I was younger. Althought I don't play in college. I am interested in soccer because it is my favorite sport and I like watching any kind of soccer game. When i was in high school I was on varsity all four years and team captian my senior year. I know pretty much everything about the sport itself; however, I don't know anything about when soccer became a sport or how it was originated and by who. In order to be good at soccer the players have to know about the history. They wont be as successful if they dont know about the history. Also i feel that if players knew more about the history, soccer would become more popluar in the United States. I feel that this would be a good research proposal because not to many people know or think about the history of sports. In my research proposalo I want to find out why soccer is called what it is, how it origninated and by who. Those question will then lead me into other questions and i will be able to find more information about soccer. This is my first, research proposal, choice.

my first post

I have done research papers in both high school and college. When I was in high school I did a research paper on September 11th for my Hisory class. I also did research on Abraham Lincoln. I like doing the research part but I'm not a good writer. I dont like to write that much. I think its because im not that good with english, as in the grammar part. When start to write a research paper there is so much information that I want to write about but i dont know he best way to word it. I did research on an artist my frst semester of college and had done petty well on it. Although it was only about 3 or 4 pages. I enjoy doing research on things that seem interesting to me. so far all the research papers i have done have been intersetin but the writin part is difficult for me.
