By now, I have already completed the first four Phases of my Inquiry Project work and am about to do my fourth and final Phase before the Final Product. In Phase 0, I chose the topic that I wanted to do my Inquiry Project on, which turned out to be antiques and collectibles.

Previously I had worked on Phase 0, 1, 2, and 3 which has helped me developed my topic, p

In Phase 3, I finalized my field research and have gathered the prominent facts I will need in order to generate my final product. This is Phase 4, where I will be emerging my ideas and arranging my groundwork.

In Phase 1 we found our 10 big question to help during our conversations in Xizhou, in Phase 2 we found helpful resources, in Phase 3 we collected all the information that we gathered from our conversations.

In Phase 0, I selected the topic for my inquiry project, which was Xizhou Perspectives: Looking Outward, Looking Ahead. Next, in Phase 1, I posed questions that would guide my field research based on the knowledge I acquired beforehand.

Previously in Phase 3, I shared and interpreted the information that I collected from online sources before the trip and also from the fieldwork I conducted out in the village during the trip. Now, in Phase 4, I will be preparing to share my findings by creating a general outline of the information I will include in my final product and sharing the most important things I have learned during my journey here. 

I am currently in Phase 4. Back in Phase 3, I had researched information about the field of Local Plants and People's Connection. In Phase 4, I will be looking for other students' work who had done the same topic as me. I will then choose the style I will be reporting my findings as, and then I will finally create my outline.

In Phase 0, I narrowed down the large list of topics I could choose from to find my final inquiry project topic; love and marriage. Then, in Phase 1, I organized the knowledge I currently possess about this topic and what information I will need to gather for this project.

So far I have completed all work from Phase 1 and Phase 2. In Phase 1, I started brainstorming what I wanted to research and I created the big questions which would later help guide me as I was doing my research.
