First, get background information.

• Do an internet search (Wikipedia is ok here).
• What are the major subtopics?
• What are some keywords when the topic is discussed?
• Who, what, when, where, why, and how?

Second, focus your topic.

• Use the background information and knowledge you've gained.
• What specifically do you want to concentrate your research on?
• Write a research question or thesis statement.
• Who, what, when, where, why, and how (again).

Third, research.

• What information do you need?
• How much information do you need?
• Where will you look?
• Give yourself time.
