question 2

Q2.1The Fluency Process is as Follows:

Ask

- When the finding (Homo Naledi) was  looked from the start there was many questions asked. If good questions are asked then they can receive good answers based on the evidence. Some of the questions that could be asked during this time could be "How can this fossils relate to the modern human", "How old is the fossil."

Acquire
This step includes determining where the information is; prioritizing the search strategy; skimming, scanning and scouring the resources; filtering through the results In that case Professor Lee Berger and his people would had have to look back at the information that they had from the start and followed up on it. This would give the team an idea on what to look for.

Analyze
The results of the search will yield raw information and data that in turn needs to be analyzed, authenticated and arranged to make a cohesive picture.

Apply
In this step Professor Lee Berger and his team would have to use the knowledge they have leant into the real world problems they are faced with. They would have to put different ideas that they have acquired together and make sure they all make sense.  The knowledge that they have must be backed up with evidence to make their hypothesis concrete.


Assess
This when the user will look at the result of their application and the process they followed. It involves asking questions about the process used, the steps followed and the information that was obtained; reflecting on what went well and what could have been done better.
