SWA #15

SWA #15: Research three issues you are considering for the research project (there should be at least one local and one global issue on your list) using Google Scholar and/or the USC Library Databases. Your goal is to find at least 4 diverse credible sources.   On your blog, list the issues and reflect on your search process and results.  Say which of the issues you found easier to research and which of them you are leaning towards

I have been having a fairly easy time going about finding information and resources for my controversial topic, In Vitro Fertilization. It is not very difficult to find sources regarding both the pros and cons of this topic, yet it is still interesting to find out more about the ethical, legal, and spiritual conflicts of the issue. Overall, I have found that gay marriage is so controversial and almost venomous topic, I dislike reading about the pros and cons for the issue, so I have decided to not use gay marriage as a topic. SOPA, on the other hand, is a good topic to use-it is not overly developed, deals with several legal, moral, and spiritual issues, and is a current topic. SOPA news continues to be updated all the time, so the sources I have for it are never ending. I will most likely decide between SOPA and IVF soon.
