Hello, all

I actually posted something like this the other day, but i was basically asking you guys to do all of my dirty work which was very inconsiderate of me. I have to write a research paper on a Topic in my Buddhism class (thereveda and mahayana).

I need help coming up with a "research question". Ive narrowed down some topics im interested in - I just dont know how to make a research question out of them!

1. Meditation - maybe like the effects of meditation
2. Women in Buddhism - Like something about nuns having it harder or something? We've read a lot about sexism
3. Comparing the thereveda and mahayana - this seems straightforward, but im wondering if i should compare a specific aspect within these schools.. if that makes sense

Im hoping someone can help me out as ive had a really hard year and missed a lot of class due to family issues, so I feel like my grasp on buddhism isnt the best. I dont mean to cause any burden, I could just use a little guidance
