Consider the concept of confirmation bias and how it affects the way we frame research questions and the information we search for and select, as well as how we present the information we find. Think about the assumptions we make every day and how those assumptions might be helpful and unhelpful when doing research.

Consider any assumptions you have about your research topic, how those assumptions could lead to confirmation bias, and how you could address that bias in your research.
