homework#10

I find coming up with research topic to be simple.  One of my difficulties I encountered was creating a good research topic question.  This is the first time in which I have to create a research topic question for a research paper. I normally have to write a thesis statement.  My strategy was to write a thesis statement the way I’m custom to writing it, I wrote the thesis statement and transformed into a research topic question.   Another strategy I used is searching my topic online.  I am able to expand my knowledge on the topic with the information obtained on the online search.

journal entry #2 – joey

Posted on November 19, 2012 by | Leave a comment

In classes I have taken before writing a research paper has been hard especially when it comes to finding good quality research.  Throughout this class many techniques of finding research have been given to us in order to find it.  Some of the things I have already used in order to find different research for different classes but finding research for my topic has been very difficult.  I thought it would be a breeze because of the studies we did to find research but as I learned more the research found wasn’t good enough and I really didn’t think it would be this time consuming.

I have learned alot from doing all this research  Iv notably learned that their are many different ways i can search for things, weather it be online via LibX or online catalogs. Also to search using key phrases and words, such as OR.I will defiantly use these ideas out of class because there 50x easier  to work with and i will get a more defined answer while searching for what im looking for. I can also pass this knowledge i have learned to other people who may need help as well. Because it will defiantly help them out like these methods have been helping me out with my research topic and other work as well.

1st Journal ASS.

Due to FrankinStorm Sandy things have gotten difficult for me. I stared looking for articles using Google search bar.  So far the most difficult part of my research centers was getting my question set. I always have a problem with starting my papers. I normally don’t know if my question is good enough. I have thought about interviewing one of my English Prof. which is going to be writing a book on my subject. My subject has to deal with how grammar of students has gotten worst due to the abbreviations. I find that when I write I normally write “u” instead of “YOU”.. I have done it in my essays. I guess its because of texting… lol
