* Origins (pick the set of questions that best fits your topic):
Why was this technology invented? What older tools or practices does it replace? What previous innovations does it build on?
How was this scientific discovery or medical advance made? What previous discoveries did it build on? What was the motivation for this research?
How and why did this issue become controversial? What are the precedents for it? (for example, previous legal cases or previous technological disasters)
* Actors: Who is/was involved in the invention, discovery, or controversy? This could include scientists; inventors; financiers, stockholder, and venture capitalists; government agencies that fund or regulate research; lawmakers; the judicial system; consumers; etc.
* Context: How was this invention, discovery, or controversy shaped by its cultural or historical context? Note: You will probably not find the answer to this in your sources; you'll have to think about it and come up with your own conclusions.
