Proposal

__Initial Proposal__

Why do adolescents judge each other based on their appearance?
 * 1. Identify the argument of my topic's thesis.**

Because from what i witness at school, students judge each other based on what each other look like and i disagree and dislike that people would do that because looks do not tell about the person and you need to talk and interact with them before treating them based on their looks.
 * 2. Why do I want to research this topic for my Project?**

Because i want to know about why adolescents do this and to prove that basing people on their appearance is wrong and can be false a majority of the time.
 * 3. Why do I want to do this Project?**

A group of students. Fresh new minds and opinions tell me about how they think based on what an individual looks like.
 * 4. Who should be involved in negotiating the problem/issue?**

Adolescents should not be "judging a book by it's cover" Getting to know someone before treating them should be how people interact with one another, by treating them wrongly right off the bat can hurt not only them, but their friends and the people who influence them.
 * 5. What should be done about this problem?**

There needs to be some sort of test or eye-opening event that shows that by judging someone from their looks is wrong and can be false for the majority of the time.
 * 6. What action should be taken to resolve this problem/issue?**

By judging someone wrongly, it hurts one's self esteem and they way they think of themselves or others. That could be avoided by people getting to know them more, not just treating them a certain way based on the other person's looks.
 * 7. Why does this topic have a significant impact on society?**

This subject also effects attitude. By judging people based on their looks, it's almost showing that they're close-minded and do not have a very big look on life. By changing their opinions and telling people to not judge each other based on looks, they treat other people better and the attitudes become more open minded and optimism increases.
 * 8. To which larger class(-es) of issues or events does my topic belong? or How does the topic I explore have a domino effect into other issues/areas/subjects?**

One way i can plan my project is by getting a goup of kids/students and observe how they look and are treated with their peers, after a lot of observation i can change their appearance and see how they are treated differently because of the difference in appearance
 * 9. How am I tentatively planning my Project? [Indicate six general goals and how I can achieve them.**]

1**0. How am I tentatively planning to complete my research for my paper? [Indicate four general goals and how I can achieve them.]** First by organizing my research and finding which is better to talk about and at what points in my paper. Second by making an outline and making sure that what i put down is in cronological order and make sure that it flows and makes sence Third is to confirm that my information is relevent to what i am writing and has a good relation to my topic. Fourth is to put it all together and write in all out in an essay, afterwards going back and putting the finishing touches.

1**1. Identify the subtopic areas of research (nouns verbs and adjectives from mind map) needed to be addressed for the Project and research.** Judging (making assumptions and bassing on looks), Adolescents (students and those in social surroundings), Bullying (hurting other people), Assuming (making conclusion bassed on what people see in other people), Affect (change, hurt, help,)

See printed out sheets and soon bibliography page
 * 12. Which are four sources which can serve as my topic overview sources? What three sources can serve as my research keystone?**

This will be difficult for me because i feel it will require a large amount of tests and observations. I am going to have to observe not only how people treat each other when they are acting and looking like themselves, but i also have to observe how they are treated when they look different and how it differs from how crazy they look or how abnormal they look compared to each other.
 * 13. What do I anticipate this Project involving, in terms of work, time and resources? or How is this Project a personal stretch for me?**

Finding a way to test my thesis. To be more specific i need to find volunteers and people to help me discover how the physical appearance of people affect how they are treated.
 * 14 .What issues/challenges can I foresee?**

I can start by observing the different social interactions between not only students and elementry school, but also by gathering research and take a side on how i feel. By saying that students and adolescnets are judgemental about each other i'm saying that they are and it's bad and sometimes it leads to bullying.
 * 15. How can I consider negotiating the identified problems?**
