Blog 10: EQ

1. Review this. Confirm by stating "I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ."

I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ.

2. Review the following EQs and tell us if each meets the rule of three. Tell why they do or why they don't.

EQ#1: What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss? 

Question 1 easily provides a framework for research as it is a general question that could be many different answers. No direct stance is taken when it comes to the question above, however a stance could be taken AFTER doing all of your research and finding out what are important factors for healthy weight loss. Wording makes sense. All-in-all, the question above is a decent EQ.

EQ#2: What is most important to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation?

Question 2 doesn't appear to be too bad of a question, but it could be worded a little better, for the formatting is awkward. Example: What are the most important factors to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation? 

EQ#3: What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer.

Question 3 is not an optimal EQ because best satisfying a customer is extremely subjective, therefore, the research behind it would have too many variables. I guess it could be said that great service and listening to descriptions given by the customer is a good start, but it's just too broad at the start.

EQ#4: How can an anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?

Question 4 is fine. Wording is okay. You can research many different sub-topics under anesthesiology for it. It's debatable if it takes a stance, but with more research a side could easily be taken.

3. Based on your review of the rule of 3 and your experience with assessing four EQs, please write another draft EQ for your senior project.
