This interactive workshop introduces participants to the process of turning  real-world community soil health problems into clear, researchable questions. Through the  use of a case study and facilitated dialogue between participants, we explore simple  principles of partnership working and collaborative enquiry. By the end, participants will  have practised shaping a community issue into a focused research question they can apply in  their own teaching or projects. The session ends with a short collective summary to capture  key insights and next steps. 

Learning objectives: 

• Identify what you already know and what you want to learn about creating research  questions from community problems. 
• Recognize basic principles of working well with community partners. 
• Explain the difference between a broad problem and a focused research question. • Practice turning a community-identified soil-health issue (or crowd-mapped issue)  into a researchable question.
• Reflect on how this approach could fit into your own teaching or context.
