Proposed Topic in the form of an Essential Question:
Does television/video games influence bad behavior and morals to the children who watch and play them and also does it affect their learning capabilities?
Rationale for Choice
What about this topic appeals to you? Why did you choose it?
I got my attention because all around me the youth and teens are constantly watching televisions and playing their video games at home. I am eager to learn if the television shows and video games affect the behavior on children and if it teaches them bad morals.
What do you already know about this subject?
I don't know all the facts but the general idea that the abusive shows on television and games influences the violent behavior upon the youth through the uncensored and unmoral materials shown on TV/games.
What are you hoping to learn about the subject?
I am hoping to learn a solution or if this problem/issue is scientifically true in anyway.
What are you most interested in regarding the topic?
I am most interested in how our society will deal with the problem of the youth with television and video games and how they propose to fix the issue of behavioral changes and the endangerment to the learning capabilities of our children today.
What potential risks or challenges do you foresee for your project?
Some challenges I may face is the resource in information, facts, and to find a community service in dealing with technological affects on behavior.
You may wish to choose either television or video games. You will find extensive research on either one, but if you keep both it will be too broad. As to community service, you can also do fieldwork - create something to distribute to your fellow students, set up a booth that gives information, go to a video game convention, go to a video game store and interview people. There are several ideas.
