a list of primary topics to investigate

Reason: With research questions and a schedule in place, listing the main topics or subtopics to investigate helps focus what sources to look for and guides each step of the research. A working thesis and bibliography come later, and audience analysis is useful but less central to the basic research-plan structure.
