Pg. 91 “At a Glance”


1. I am interested in this research topic because it concerns the cultural ideas of our society. Learning about urban legends, in this case, the loch ness monster also is very interesting and I am curious about this different ideas and beliefs associated with the topic.
2. I have not developed an argument on the topic yet, but I can form one after I have researched about it a little more. I can argue for the “fact or fiction” aspect of the loch ness monster, or I can argue that urban legends have a great impact on our society in general.
3. I will be able to find enough research on this topic because of everything available to me. The internet has a great deal of information on the topic, and the library has a lot of information on many different urban legends and their effect on society and culture in various areas of the world.
4. This topic does interest me and I do have a genuine interest and curiosity surrounding it. I want to learn about different urban legends because the stories and beliefs associated with them have interested me in the past.
