My research question is: Is public school better than private school? I think that this question will help me with my research paper. This is the main reason why I choose this topic, I want to know if private school is really better than public school. And also if it is better than what makes private school better than private schools.

My research is going good so far. I have found several informative cites. I found a site called www.greatschools.com on this site it gives you a break down of different schools. This site also gives you information, for example at a private school there is tuition and at a public school there is no tuition. I found that there is a lot of different issues when it comes to this subject.

For my argumentative paper I will be researching the different theories in teaching. I think that doing this research will help me because, I plan on becoming a teacher and by educating myself I can then use them in my classroom. I know that there are a bunch of theorist when it comes to education. Some are used in today's classrooms. I don't know much on this subject that it one of the main reasons why I choose it as an argumentative paper. I know that some of the theories came from along time ago and some are fairly new. Maybe I can argue if the new theories work better or the new ones are better. I hope I can learn an abundance through my argumentative paper.
