Research Paper R17eflection

    I felt that this paper was difficult when we were researching and containing information. You had to be specific with yourself on whether you needed certain cites. Also one factor that played in to whether the cites were useful was if they supported your thesis or answered your research question. After you had the information to obtain those two things everything wasn't that difficult. Honestly you just had to organize and tie your information together with the right formatting and guidelines. Next time I write this paper I will know not to procrastinate and make more notecards. I hate to say this, but I think you (Dr. D) did as much as you could to help us succeed on this paper, work time, optional conferences, comments on rough draft, peer review, and we were aware of the assignment and due date way in advance.
    The comments I got from peer review and you (Dr. D) was mostly that I needed to cite my in text information. Also that I needed to clear up some of my statements that didn't display information or facts clearly.
    My paper seems to be strong in tying my information, paraphrasing, and quotes in to my text to support my thesis statement and to answer my research question. The weakest point was probably the quality of my citations. Although most of them were from databases, some were from uncredible authors and websites.
   There is nothing else to add.
