2. Changed Topic From… Special needs and art education Topic seemed too broad Not interested enough Feel I would need to study more about special needs rather than art education
3. How I found my topic What about art education interests me most? What time period of art is the most appealing to me? What will be the most beneficial to my career after graduating? What do I have some knowledge on that will benefit me to learn more about? Why is there such strong distaste for some contemporary art? How will a contemporary art base in art education benefit students? What will be constructive to the future of art education?
6. Doubts Not enough on contemporary art Too many options, I will need to view many writings and choose specific ones that I feel are the most valuable and persuasive to promoting my thesis.
