EQ (Blog 9)

I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ.

a. What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss?
This EQ seems to fit the criteria the best.Not only is it loose enough that you need more information to come to a conclusion, but it is easy to understand and provides ground for multiple answers.

b. What is most important to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation?
This EQ is fairly straightforward. Unfortunately, it's too simple to qualify as one. The answer can simply be summed up as "evidence" and requires little research. In addition, it does not entice debate in any sense.

c. What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer?
This EQ is too open-ended. Not only does it not specify the type of customer, it also does not specify what exactly you are looking for. Depending on the customer the EQ could be answered in multiple ways, to the point of possibly having TOO much conflict.

d. How can an Anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?
This seems like a fine EQ. It needs extensive research, provides room for multiple opinions, and is fairly understandable. The terms "Anesthesiologist" and "chronic" may need to be explained, but this can be fixed in the presentation.

After reviewing the "Rule of 3" my new EQ is "How may librarians best serve contemporary patrons?"
