Blog post 7: Reflection of my inquiry project.

In this blog post I will address the following questions: 

a. What challenges did you overcome throughout this inquiry project? How did you go about 

overcoming these challenges? 

b. How did this inquiry change the way you think? 

c. How did this investigation impact your future decisions? 

d. What impact will this investigation have on others locally and/or globally? 

a.) During my blog post research I was able to identify a few challenges which i had to overcome throughout the inquiry project. The first challenge was the process of gathering the necessary information to accurately answer the questions, since I had to use different sources each time it got increasingly difficult to find trustable sources, i eventually managed to find enough sources via searching through the web and fact checking the information. Which resulted in me overcoming this challenge. Another challenge i faced while conducting my research was the validity of the sources, I was able to verify the validity of the websites using websites that i know are reputable to cross reference, for example, i used sites such as Wikipedia to cross reference the information contained within the site i wanted to check.  

b.)How did this investigation impact your future decisions? 

This investigation opened my eyes to how a countries military can be impacted by its economy, for example, nowadays whenever I read about anything concerning economics, i am able to apply the knowledge I’ve learned during my inquiry project to help formulate accurate opinions about the info in the news.  

c.)How did  this investigation have on others locally and/or globally? 

My investigation impacted others because of the information I’ve obtained, for example, it could allow voters to make better decisions due to them having a better understanding of their own countries’ economy and military.  My investigation can also impact those globally such as in countries with bad leaders, for example, my investigation could allow people to realize whether their president is making the right choices regarding the nation’s economy and military.
