Option 1: Select a topic that would benefit your community 
Imagine that you’ve been hired by a Center for Well-Being in your local community. The Director of the Center for Well-Being is so impressed with your efforts and energy, she’s giving you the responsibility of developing a well-researched, scientific PowerPoint presentation and/or Infographic that addresses an aspect of health/dimension of wellness that you are passionate about.
ThePart 1: Determine your question
Directions
The scientific method starts when you ask a question about something that you observe or are curious about. Ask yourself: How, What, When, Who, Which, Why, or Where? (see KIN 220 Educate and Advocate Part 1.pptx for details).Links to an external site.  . Ideally, you’ll become a “mini-expert” on a health topic of your choice. Think carefully about what you’re interested in learning more about and sharing with others. Your question should be very specific within one area of health and wellness—choose one dimension of wellness and focus on a specific population.    
Here are some examples of specific questions and the aspect of wellness on which each focuses:

“What are the barriers to physical activity for mothers with young children?” Physical health and wellness
“Who experiences more depression: college-aged men or women?” Emotional health and wellness
“How do high school students make decisions about their sexual health practice?” Intellectual health and wellness
“How can college students reduce the risks of hearing damage related to noise pollution from the ongoing construction on campus and around their homes?” Environmental health and wellness

Do Background Research
It’s critical that you do the necessary research to better understand the question you’re attempting to answer and to provide correct information on the topic.
Conducting your Background Research
