This guide outlines the four essential stages of research involved in creating a political party: Explore, Investigate, Process, and Create. Begin by exploring what you already know and what you need to find out. Next, formulate higher-order questions using the 5 Ws and 1 H method to establish your focus statement. In the investigation stage, identify necessary resources and create a bibliography. Finally, process your findings through effective note-taking, and create a structured plan for your project using APA references.
