New Take on the Horse Training Idea

In order to not make my research paper a "How to" paper what if I focused on the differences between training methods and styles? This way I would be able to compare/contrast and allow readers to judge for themselves. It would also give me more to research than just how to train a horse.

Top Three

1) Horse Training

I have become involved with the horse program were I work at Camp Fitch. There is a young (4 hear old) Quarter Horse who has great personality and potential, and if I knew more I would love to train her and make her into a really good horse. I don't know a lot, but I have spend a few year riding and helping out at different barns and really enjoy learning abut horses and riding them. My angle towards this topic is going to be more on the practical side. What are the steps to training a horse?



2)Handwriting Analysis

When I was in TX I had a meeting with someone who analyzed my handwriting and I was so amazed by how she knew what she did about me by just looking over my handwriting. She explained quite a few of the things that she looks at and what they mean, but I would love to understand more about it and how she was able to get so much out of my handwriting. What do people who analyze handwriting look for when they are analyzing someones handwriting?



3)Army Chaplin's

I just started dating an Army Chaplin and would like to look into what it is he will do and how his life may look in the future. I don't know much at all about what an Army Chaplin's life would be like and am thinking I may do this topic for my second research paper. How is a Chaplin different from a pastor? What is in the job description of an army Chaplin. I am not sure what guiding question to use, and any of the ones I just put down could work.

first post

Here are some questions I am considering for my research paper.

Horse Training: How do different training techniques work?, What are the major differences between them?, What are the basic steps that are taken to properly train a horse? and What are the diffrent levels a horse can be trained at?

Handwriting Analysis: What are the different uses for handwriting analysis? and How does it work? Who uses handwriting analysis?
