Pyramid of Questions
A Pyramid of Questions is a compilation of all the question that arise during your project ("pyramid" because later questions build on earlier ones). So you can review the Pyramid as a whole from time to time, compile it in a part of your workbook separate from the freewriting, personal reflections, and other mess. In the list would go the initial questions—general and specific—for your projects, successive variants of your
Governing Question, questions that arose during library research, possible questions to ask informants, and so on. These questions could be crossed out when no longer central to your evolving project and checked when satisfactorily addressed.
