Which of the following choices is part of the initial steps of the research process?

A. Choosing a topic and creating a research question

B. Revising and editing the presentation

C. Organizing resources

D. Creating an outline of the final presentation

The correct answer is A. Choosing a topic and creating a research question

Explanation:

In research, the purpose is to answer the main research question or to disprove/prove a hypothesis by using different methods such as surveys, observations, etc. and using the information of different sources. In this context, the first steps include choosing the topic you want to research and then creating a research question. These are always the first steps because without a topic and a question to answer or a hypothesis other steps are not possible such as looking for sources, creating a method or presenting the results.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
