Reflection

I think the most helpful document in writing my research paper was doing all of the blogs and looking up how to actually write the different sections of the paper. I was pretty lost as to how to write most of it until I did the research and I referenced my blogs throughout the whole process.

I think the peer review projects were really helpful. Coming from another student in the same situation doing the same assignment, it helped to get their feedback. It also reassured me that I was on the right track in my own paper by looking at other’s work. I also looked for things in my paper that I found in others whether they were mistakes or things that were needed in the paper.

I think the most difficult part was doing all of the research and writing the lit review. It was hard to find information that pertained to my topic and organize it in a way that would make sense. I tried to fill holes in the resarch when I was doing my own and that was also hard to do. It was hard to find exactly waht I wanted to do with this paper. The method section came the easiest for me. I think once I knew what resarch question I wanted to answer, i knew exactly how I was going to answer it and how I was going to go about finding my information.

I cant think of one speicfic area that shows my best work. I think my conclusion and discussion section is pretty well written. i think I organized it well and it flows nicely.
