Chapter 2 - Refining the Question

Chapter 2 – Shape Your Thesis with a Question That Matters

Not sure what your thesis is really about yet? You're not alone. This chapter helps you turn early ideas into a clear, researchable question—one that brings focus to your project and purpose to your writing.

You’ll be guided through the process of narrowing your topic, clarifying your direction, and crafting a question strong enough to carry your thesis from start to finish. No fluff—just a practical, supportive approach that helps you move forward with confidence.

By the end of this chapter, you’ll have:

• A sharper understanding of what you’re really asking—and why it matters
  
• A focused, open-ended research question you can actually build on
  
• A clearer sense of the conversations you’re joining (or challenging)
  
• A flexible draft you can test, revise, and return to as your thinking evolves
  
  

Why it’s worth it:
 A strong research question is the foundation of a strong thesis. This chapter makes sure yours can hold up—so you can stop second-guessing and start building.
