I was to research this topic because I am really interested in the ocean and the wonders in carries that we still have yet to explore. A research question I have is &#8220;How does the ocean depth affect the size of the marine life the deeper it gets?&#8221; I would say as you get deeper all marine life grow greatly in size, so as to combat the pressure weighing down on them. Another question I have is &#8220;Does being deeper in the ocean make marine life more aggressive?&#8221; I would say yes because it&#8217;s a struggle to survive down there with limited resources, so anything becomes a resource. My last question on this topic would be &#8220;Do all marine life learn the inborn ability to &#8220;see&#8221; without light?&#8221; again, I would say yes because you need it to survey for predators. The second area I am interested in researching would be Uses for Gaming in Teaching. I think this would be a really great topic just to see if gaming could actually be used to help children or adults learn subjects or fields better. I would ask &#8220;How does the use of gaming impact someone&#8217;s motivation to learn?&#8221; I think it would impact them great as it gives a better experience than sitting in a classroom. &#8220;Can gaming give better retention than standard teaching methods?&#8221; I believe someone would remember a certain event or scene better in gaming than in the classroom. My final question is &#8220;Could gaming foster better communication and collaboration than in a standard teaching environment?&#8221; I agree that it would because a lot of games require you to work as a team to get to you goal and the experience of winning with someone could heighten that teamwork.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An area I am interested in researching would be Ocean Depth effects on Marine Life.
