Research Plan

Questions:
Do you have a research plan?
I do have an idea of what my research plan is. I will need to follow the assignment schedule while working on things outside of class in order to fulfill all of the requirements.
Have you created one before?
I have not created a research plan before. Generally, I know when things are due and I just go with that. I make sure things are turned in on time.
What kinds of things should be included in a research plan?
There needs to be set dates for things to be due. I will need to do a lot of research online and possibly speak to people who are in the medical field.
