By using the what, why, when, where and who questions, Cindy can narrow down the focus of her research and limit the volume of data she needs to analyze. This approach will give her a clear understanding of what she needs to investigate and will help her avoid irrelevant data. Sticking to the maximum number of pages allowed, using a single secondary source, or gathering as much information from primary research as possible will not necessarily help Cindy limit the scope of her project.
