Record of Initial Ideas
To be completed by the candidate This page records initial meeting(s) with
your supervisor to agree your project ideas. Additional pages can be
submitted if more than one idea has been explored.
My idea(s) for topic/title
1. What impact did Covid-19 have on individual's lives?
2.To what extent does childhood trauma increase the likelihood
of criminal behaviour in adulthood?
3.Are serial killers a product of biology, psychology, or social
environment?
4.Can childhood trauma be considered a root cause of criminal
behaviour?
My ideas for research and development of my project
What impact did Covid-19 have on individual's lives?
Covid-19 is a highly relevant and impactful topic that has
affected every aspect of life worldwide. This came with
significant changes in health, economy, education, and social
behaviour. As covid-19 is a recent and important global event
that affected many aspects of life. It is also allowing me to
explore the most significant global events in recent history. Not
only having a wide variety of data analysis and independent
research I can also base things on my personal experience as I
personally went through this traumatic experience.This provides
me with a wide range of angles to explore within the sector of
Covid-19. One of the sectors being the science behind the virus,
how it spreads, and the development of vaccines, this gives me a
strong base within my research study. Issues within the pandemic
have occurred such as public health policies, mental health
challenges, and the role of technology in managing crises. Doing
my project on Covid-18 will allow me to analyse real-time data
and study the responses of different countries. This would allow
, me to create a dynamic in my project. Not only this but, writing
about Covid-19 may also improve my understanding of global
health issues and help me to develop clear critical thinking skills
as I evaluate the effectiveness of the various strategies that were
used to combat this virus.
Potential ideas:
-The impact of COVID-19 on global healthcare systems
-Mental health effects of the pandemic on different age groups
-The role of technology in managing the COVID-19 crisis
-Economic consequences of COVID-19 worldwide
-How COVID-19 changed education and remote learning
-The development and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines
-Government responses to the pandemic: successes and failures
-The impact of COVID-19 on small businesses and
entrepreneurship
-Social inequalities highlighted but the pandemic
-The environment effects of lockdowns during COVID-19
-Changed in work culture: rise of remote working
-The effect of Covid-19 on global travel and tourism
To what extent does childhood trauma increase the likelihood of
criminal behaviour in adulthood?
Writing my EPQ on if the way childhood trauma increases the
likelihood of criminal behaviour in adulthood is not only a good
idea but also highly significant and important as it explores the
complex issue that affects many people and society as a whole.
This could include; childhood trauma, such as abuse, neglect, or
witnessing violence. Childhood trauma can have a long-lasting
effect on a person's mental health and behaviour which means by
understanding this connection it may help explain why some
individuals may turn to crime later in life. It would allow me to
look at the psychological theories, social factors, and real-life
