Research Process

Well i finally came to a topic i wanted to write about after i talked to a couple of my friends on my team. So once i knew what i wanted to research, I went online and found a lot of information, and then started typing. Then unfortunately i had to cite it which wasn't very fun:(

Class evaluation

I was really glad to hear that you wanted to give us less homework from now on!! Thats probably because i never get all mine done. But I like when we do the circle thing in class, because then i"m more engaged compared to sitting in a row looking at a power point. And as far as the peer review, i think it has its pros and its cons but overall it helps.

research topic

I would love to tell you what im writing my research paper on but i honestly don't know yet. Because my topic that i had in class i dont think i can get ten pages of info out of it. but some other ideas i have are the effects of steroids on the human body, or technology is changing farming.

research papers

I wasn't in class the other day so I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to write about. I once wrote a thirteen page research paper about the effect carbon emissions from cars has on global warming. I believe i got a b+ on the paper. It took a lot of time and lots of research, but it wasn't that bad in the end since it was in high school. I did most of my research on the internet and some from magazines, because we have a crappy library. So it will be interesting doing research in a real library.

Presentations

We had to give our class a presentation about how to revise our papers so they would suck less! Each group had to present five of the twenty-five different ways. Our group had explode a moment, beyond examples, research, backing up your assumptions, and beginnings, middles, ends, and the work they do. I learned a lot of helpful tips from each presentation, and thought that the frankenstein thing they did was kind of cool. Now i just need to apply all this info to my paper!
