However, FYC students may struggle with the ethical and practical issues of collecting, analyzing, and writing about survey results, interviews, and observations. This chapter introduces definitions of research from an interdisciplinary perspective, examines ethical considerations, and compares the research process to the writing process. The chapter concludes with information about writing from primary research, including integrating research and creating visuals. Two student examples&#8211;a nutrition observation\/survey project and a agricultural and biological engineering interview project&#8211;are provided to give students concrete examples. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alternate Downloads:&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may also download this chapter from Parlor Press or WAC Clearinghouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Writing Spaces is published in partnership with&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.parlorpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Parlor Press<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/wac.colostate.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WAC Clearinghouse<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dana Lynn Driscoll Volume 2 Chapter Description Research projects where students are asked to gather first-hand data are a common occurrence in first year writing courses (FYC).
